[iTunes] Smart Playlist problem with iTunes 9.0.1 and iPod Touch

[Greg McNeil]

Hi,
I like to shuffle thru all of the songs on my iPod Touch before I hear  
any of them again and to make that automatic I created a smart  
playlist with two conditions.  The first named the playlist from which  
the songs would come and the second specified that the date the songs  
last played is before a certain date.  With this smart playlist every  
time a song would play, the number of songs on the list would be  
reduced by one song.  When all the songs on the list had played I  
would reset the last played date to the current date and the smart  
playlist would repopulate.

This no longer works and the number of songs on the smart playlist is  
just like on any other playlist  (1 of 1000, 2 of 1000, etc) with the  
total number of sings on the list staying the same.

I have read of updates to iTunes causing such problems and wonder if  
anyone knows of a work around.

I have iTunes 9.0.1 on my MacBook running Snow Leopard and have  
software version 3.1.1 on the iPod Touch.

Thanks,

Greg
