Re: [Rhythmbox-devel] A little but usefull change: hit counter

[Sam Tygier <samtygier yahoo co uk>]

I have a few tracks that have a song, then 5 or 10 mins of silence, and 
then a bonus song. so i can see why this would be useful. however in 
these cases i would skip after 20 to 30% of the song.

Another solution would be to add 'end' (and possibly 'start') tags to 
the songs. so for my long track with silence and bonus song, i just open 
up its properties, and set the end to be 3 mins and 20 sec (or whatever).

now it will automatically skip when the song finishes (no more of me 
pushing buttons), and because it has 'finished' it increments the counter.

according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ID3 ID3v1 extended tags have 
start-time and end-time tags.
