Request: Expand to all linked files function
« on: June 27, 2019, 06:44:30 pm »

Would it be possible to introduce an expand to linked files modifier to the smartlist rules. We have expand to album as a modifier, but I frequently create playlists using the linkstart >0 rule and I have to send them to the player to have them expanded out to all linked files before I can select them for inclusion in a playlist. The other reason being that using a dlna device to pull a smartlist using linkstart as a selection criterium results in a playlist which only plays the individual tracks without them being expanded out  to include the related linked tracks.
