This plugin for Logitech Media Server makes it possible to create smart
playlists. Although the standard Logitech Media Server doesn't support
smart playlists by itself, together with iTunes and the standard
Logitech Media Server iTunes integration, it is possible to use smart
playlists defined in iTunes. The problem though is that the integrated
iTunes smart playlists will not be recalculated until the next time
you perform a rescan in Logitech Media Server. The SQL Playlist plugin
takes care of this problem and implements native smart playlist in
Logitech Media Server without any need to use iTunes. The smart playlists
implemented in SQL Playlist will also be automatically re-calculated
after each track played so they will be based on the latest statistic
information.
A smart playlist in SQL Playlist are continous and will run forever in
the same way as the standard Random Mix plugin, you can optionally
also choose that a smart playlist shouldn't repeat already played
tracks and in that case the music will stop when all songs matching
the playlist has been played.
audio/logitechmediaserver: 8.5.2 -> 9.0.3, rename to audio/lyrionmusicserver
- With version 9, the project gets a new name.
The basics are mostly the same.
- non-GPL firmware/files have been removed, so package can now
be redistributed (result of discussions with Lyrion community)
- Many perl5 ports are now used, instead of vendor ports
- Some are left from the vendor code, which are not part of the p5 ports
- removing the plugins as they are unmaintained and maintainer is not sure
the plugins worked with 8.5.2, anyway

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
