How this plugin works !!!

When LikeADJ is started, LikeADJ add shufflelized (not by MusicBee but via my own way) your entire library in the NowPlaylingPlaylist and start to analyse each song sequentially.

When the first song is found depending of your criterias, LikeADJ analyse if the next song in the NowPlayingList is compatible.

If the next song is compatible, LikeADJ create a playlist (or not if your have not checked this option) and try to find the next song compatible following your choices.

The philosophy:

1. All songs whithout required TAGs (depending of your choices) are removed from the NowPlaylingPlaylist (So the NowPlaylingPlaylist can decreased quickly if no required tags are filled).
2. All songs with all required TAGs (depending of your choices) but not matching with the previous song are moved at the end of the NowPlayingList.
3. LikeADJ, each time a new song is found, analyse how many mixable songs are remaining (see mb_LikeADJ.log, you need mb_LikeADJ.dll 2.1.1 under development).

For more informations, don't hesitate to see mb_LikeADJ.log. It will be required by me if you have a problem with LikeADJ.

Each time you execute LikeADJ, it's another playlist to listen.
