Artist Taste Profile

$

I use an artist taste profile in combination with dynamic playlisting (type: catalog) to generate playlists for my music collection. During development a few questions have been raised that I cannot find answers to in the documentation:

  • are play_count and skip_count updated for artist taste profiles? The doc states that play_count should be updated automatically for dynamic playlists linked to a taste profile but profile/read does not return any play_count attribute?
  • are the play_count, skip_count and favorite attributes of an artist taste profile entry used when generating a dynamic playlist? What is the influence and how can I steer it? The behaviour I would like to have is to play either mostly songs from artists that have been played a lot or that not been played much. Is this possible?
