Copy music to iPod based on recent iTunes playback
Authored by: zn0k on Sep 25, '08 08:15:42AM

Make a new Smart Playlist, match a rule of "Last played is in the last 2 weeks" (adjusted for what you like) and restrict it with "Limit to 4GB".

Then set that playlist to automatically sync.

That would seem considerably easier.

Thank you for your sanity.

I'd make it hierarchical, by making a second "dumb" playlist of songs I'd like to hear (a manual override), and a third smart playlist that populates itself from members of the first and second.

Any tracks you haven't played recently and want to hear can then be just added to the "dumb" playlist.

This could be extended even further by having a dumb playlist of perpetual standards. Call it "My Freebirds" if you hate classic rock radio.
