Amarok Blacklist
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
I love amarok. I especially like the "Append Suggestions" mode which
puts tracks similar to the ones I'm listening to on the playlist.
I don't, however, like every song in my playlist. So sometimes I end
up listening to music I don't want to. This is an approximation of a
solution. It will skip songs that match a tag field (artist,album,etc.) plus a given regular expression.
This script uses regular expressions and DCOP to automatically switch
to the next song. By default, the script looks in ~/.amarok.blacklist
but this can be adjusted in the script.
More information can be found in the included README.

Strange eh?

I tend to collect things by albums, but not all of the tracks on album are always worth listening to, and a lot of the time there are one or two inordinately profane songs that I'd like to skip.
Simply deleting them makes re-tagging etc. a major pain. Plus, I'm sentimental about having everything, even if I don't want to listen to it all.
What would be really handy for me would be if this could integrated with the burning plugin so that I could burn albums that corresponded with my blacklist.

I find this useful because I use full collection random and suggest. My collection is big enough that this is fun. However, I don't want my audio books or sound effect collection to play while I'm working.
Ciao!
