"Skip Count" library field… what is it?
« on: November 05, 2006, 12:55:10 pm »

I noticed in MC 12 there is a new standard library field called "Skip Count." I was hoping this is what I have been asking for… a way to get a list of songs that have been skipped… but it doesn't not appear to do anything. I skipped a bunch of songs and this field remains blank. So what is it used for?

we don't know...

I asked the same question a week or so ago and didn't get an answer.

anyone know what [skip count] and [last skipped] get used for?

new feature on the horizon perhaps?

Would definitely be a great way of the program working out automatically for us which songs we dont like.

Isn't Skip Count a tag to keep track of how many times you skipped the track?  I didn't think MC supported this  feature.

At the moment, it doesn't.

So how should [Skip Count] work.

the opposite of [Number Plays] ?

If a track was not played past the mid-point (or even less than that) then it's considered skipped.
