1. A method, comprising:
- dynamically selecting content items for presentation via a media player based on user media selection settings, wherein the user media selection settings specify a proportion of a first category of media content to be presented and a proportion of at least one second category of media content to be presented, wherein the at least one second category includes a user defined category, wherein first media content is associated with the first category based on an intrinsic property of the first media content, and wherein second media content is associated with the user defined category based on a property that is not intrinsic to the second media content; and
generating an output stream presenting the dynamically selected content items.

Abstract
Systems and methods to select media content are provided. A method includes dynamically selecting content items for presentation via a media player based on user media selection settings. The user media selection settings specify a proportion of a first category of media content to be presented and a proportion of at least one second category of media content to be presented. The at least one second category includes a user defined category. First media content is associated with the first category based on an intrinsic property of the first media content and second media content is associated with the user defined category based on a property that is not intrinsic to the second media content. The method also includes generating an output stream presenting the dynamically selected content items.

17. A computer-readable storage medium, comprising:
-
operational instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to dynamically select media content items for presentation based on user playlist settings, wherein the user playlist settings specify a proportion of a first category of media content to be presented and a proportion of at least one second category of media content to be presented, wherein the at least one second category includes a user defined category, wherein first media content is associated with the first category based on an intrinsic property of the first media content, and wherein second media content is associated with the user defined category based on a property that is not intrinsic to the second media content; and operational instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to generate an output stream to present the dynamically selected media content items.
