Create a playlist overview showing # of tracks, duration etc?
« on: February 11, 2017, 02:50:42 am »

Hi guys,

I have multiple playlists in MC, and like to create an overview of these playlists, showing total duration and number of tracks of each playlist. Similar to a list of Albums. For example a table showing all playlists like this:

Title of playlist     Tracks #   Duration      Genre       Artist
======================================
Favorite Blues       16           1:25:20      Blues        [Various]
Bach favourites     21           2:10:40      Classical    Bach, Johannes Sebastian
Classic Rock          31           3:49:50      Rock        [Various]
...........

Is this possible?

Second question: how can I quickly see the total duration of a playlist? I see the total numbers (by going to the last line), but how to see the total duration?

Select all songs.  Then look at the information line at the very bottom of the window.  It will tell you how many songs, how many megabytes, and the total duration. 

Hint:  You can select all by clicking anywhere in the song list and then pressing <control>-a (select all) .

Brian,

Perfect, thanks! Yes, at the very bottom of a playlist, the number of tracks, total size and total duration is shown when I just click on a playlist, even without selecting all tracks. I had not noticed this before.

Now I hope there is a MC wizard who can create a Playlist Overview like this:
 
Title of playlist     Tracks #   Duration      Genre       Artist
======================================
Favorite Blues       16           1:25:20      Blues        [Various]
Bach favourites     21           2:10:40      Classical    Bach, Johannes Sebastian
Classic Rock          31           3:49:50      Rock        [Various]
...........

Is this possible?
