Add a setting for skipping played Playlist entries
Note; distinct from the current "skip played entries" option in the Playlist menu, that just avoids adding played entries to the Playlist when queuing.
I am a heavy user of the Playlist and priority sorting options. I have old podcasts I'm slowly working through from the beginning, new podcasts I am constantly waiting for new episodes for and even audio books all mixed in a smart Playlist that alternates podcast from oldest episode to newest.
This system breaks when a podcast where I've listened to all the entries of releases a new entry. Usually the smart priority system will put that podcast somewhere behind where I currently am in the Playlist.
Using the delete played entries option with play from the top does not work with a smart Playlist as it just constantly reworks the Playlist causing your highest priority podcast to play every time until it's out of entries.
Using the play from the top option alone does not work because it will just play the same aleeady played episode over and over.
Without a rework of the automatic Playlist system entirely, adding an option to skip played items currently in the Playlist would allow me to enable play from the top, as when podcast is done playing it would start from the top and skip played entries until it finds one that hasn't been listened to yet.
