My use case: I use smart playlists to create dynamic music playlists, setting criteria by genre (punk rock and rock and rockabilly, for example) then setting them in random order and setting a list limit of 75 songs. I have lots of files that I want to keep in my library but don't want coming up in a playlist (for example, a bonus disc with lots of 20 second outtakes.) I tag these files with a one star user rating.

My question: is there a way I can use a smart playlist criteria to exclude by criteria? Currently it only seems to offer "all" or "any" options but none that can exclude.

Thank you for any ideas in advance!
