set rules for file display help needed
« on: July 13, 2020, 06:47:22 pm »

I am learning the set rules for file display gradually but stlll cant figure how to have categories like  sacd,
Mfsl cd    mfsl lps....mfsl sacds, Mastersound gold cds etc   Can I create any category I want ?
 Does it all depend on my tags? Can I create folders within windows and point mc to that folder and if so how exactly?
Any links or video help on this would be appreciated if at all possible?

Yes, it depends on tags (which are saved in files and also exist in the MC Library), or just MC fields (which exist only in the MC Library).

How you categorise the specific examples you have listed is up to you. The simple field [FileType] might cover SACDs, or you might want to set up a Custom Field that more specifically addresses the media source (SACD, MFSL CD, MFSL LPS, MFSL SACD).
The Wiki has a page of FAQ topics: https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Category:Frequently_Asked_Questions
Searching the Wiki for key words often works better though.
You should also search the Forum for key words such as MFSL: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,123442.msg855030.html#msg855030

These are just a few of the Wiki articles you should be familiar with:
