How to separate flac and mp3 albums?
Zaronn:
Hi. I have some albums ripped in both flac and mp3, and in MC they mix together as one album. Does anyone have a good way to seperate them trough tags for example? I tried to change the album tag and add "flac", but that's not a good way since cover art and so on can't be found.
CountryBumkin:
How about "File Type"?
Zaronn:
Tried, that doesn't help. They still mix.

You need to sort / configure the view by file type...
The best solution really is to get rid of the MP3 that you have a lossless copy of
blgentry:
Views are the answer to your question. There are several ways to do it. What views do you like to use? Albums? Artists? Panes?
If you like Panes views, you can simply add a column to your Panes for file type. Click on the file type you want (FLAC for example) and you'll only see FLAC files. Click MP3 for file type and you'll only see those.
For Categories views (like Album and Artist with thumbnails), you can make copies of the views you like. Then add rules to those views to show only the file type you want to see. So, for example, you could have Albums (FLAC) and Albums (MP3), each limited to their own file type.
You can set these file rules through: (Right click on view) > Customize View > Settings > Included files > Set rules for file display.
