Matt,
thanks for the quick answer again....
did some more tests....
~a "gran turismo"
"gran turismo" returns 11 mp3 tracks (all tagged with album, artist, ....) and .jpg (sitting in the same folder) without any tags. this seems to trigger mc showing _all_ files without any artist and album when using ~a....
I'm not sure if you intended this, but at least, it's not what I expected. I consider files without album/artist tags as not 'clean' and thus not belonging to any album.
[media type]=[audio] ~a ~n=1
~n only limits the file count, never anything else. (like album count)
right, but [media type]=[audio] should limit that to only audio files.... that's the part that doesn't work (it does, when not using ~a)
what I expected it to do is:
~n=1 : find one random track
~a : expand that to the full album
but even "~n=1 ~a" always returns just on track.
This might be by design.... if so consider this a enhancement request ;-)
(background: I usualy listen to full albums only. Using this I intended to setup a random smartlist that MC would sync to my archos. The archos holds a stock of 15GB music that's always there and some random addition (selected by that smartlist)
