New feature coming soon in v4.11: Music Browser

Browse your music library hierarchically by Genres ➤ Composers ➤ Artists ➤ Albums ➤ Titles to pick exactly what you want (similar to the Column Browser in iTunes):
1. Pick the genre(s) you are interested in (1, several or all)
2. Then pick the composer(s) within the selected genres - or skip to the next level
3. Pick the artists you want to hear (limited to the previously selected genres/composers)
4. Select the albums (again: 1, several or all)
5. Pick the titles, now narrowed down according to the selected genres/composers/artists/albums

You can cancel or finish (OK⏎) browsing at any level. The selected elements are then used as search rules and can be combined with additional rules like play count, rating, etc.

More infos and previews soon.

New feature in v4.10: Playback control

With v4.10 you will have all playback controls in 1 place:

  • Volume control
  • Shuffle off, Shuffle by title, Shuffle by album
  • Repeat none, Repeat now playing, Repeat list (all)
  • First song in smart playlist, previous / next song, last song in list
  • Play / Pause
  • Now playing: Artist and title
  • Playback position (time played / time to play)

This playback control is always at your fingertip in the upper right corner - on iPhone: "♬", on iPad: "Playback ♬".

It lets you skip songs in the currently playing list even while you're having a look at another smart playlist or at another song in detail.

Save a SmartPlaylist to the iPod playlists?

Sorry, not possible: the MPMediaLibrary is read-only. That's why it is also not possible to modify the rating in SmartPlaylist.
