Hello all,
So I have a smart playlist which pulls all unrated songs. I use this to force myself to rate songs hanging out there in my library. Now my problem is once I rate a song, I want it to be pulled off of the playlist. If I tick "live updating" in the preferences then the rated songs get taken off the list. Great... except iTunes pulls the song off of the playlist as soon as I rate it and when the song is taken off it stops playing. Even if I rate the song in the first minute, I still want to finish listening to the song.
Now my solution was to un-tick "live updating" but of course the problem there is that the playlist never updates then.
I was hoping to find/write an applescript which can set the playlist to "live updating" and then unset it again when I run it... but I can't seem to find anything in the applescript itunes dictionary where you can edit a smart playlists settings (i'm a newbie though when it comes to applescript).
I found these two applescripts for updating playlists which sounded promising but alas both require live update to work. I also tried using automator to follow my actions but couldn't get it to work reliably.

Does anyone know of an easy way to automate this whether through applescript or another way? Thanks!
