How to prevent automatic adding tracks to playlist?

<< < (3/5) > >>

stefano_mbp:
If you select the upper level “Playlists” you’ll be prompted with all the content of all playlists under that level.
What happens if you click on one single playlist (one of the playlist under the upper level)?

AGAWA:
in current situation:
Windows - nothing in subfolders, Playlists - highlighted display green/black box as seen
Mac - nothing in subfolders, Playlists - highlighted displays range of tracks, as seen in attached screen

Could not find explanation for this.

So, the reason those files are showing up there is that they ARE included in (at least one) Playlist: The Recently Imported one Jim mentioned, if not others.

But the key to understand, is if you select a View in the Tree, it always shows the results of itself, and those "under" it.

I have no playlists, and nothing in playlists; so why it is showing all my albums in top PLAYLIST view? It is different in Windows MC, there is nothing showing there.

I had no explanation so far why MC's in two different OSes behave in different way.
I think it is a bug in Mac version.

I suspect that I will have all my albums displayed there. As for now I am testing everything before importing thousands of albums into MC.

it is easier just with 4 albums. I can do all kind of experiments. Importing, deleting etc., to reach the best setup for MC.

cheers,

Open the Playlists category and then select each playlist.  It should make more sense.

Some of the playlists are automatically created from smartlists.

Just look at each one.

AGAWA:
As per your advice, I opened each of the playlists:
car lists
recently played
top hits
web media
and they are empty. Nothing there. I have no play lists and nothing in the playlists.

Recently imported (playlist) disappeared on exit with : remove all on exit setting.

But when I highlight PLAYLISTS - all of my albums (currently 4) are displayed with all tracks.

Nothing in MC27 under Windows. Only green / black box  with text. No such box in Mac OS MC.

I think I understand your instructions correctly. If no then let me know.

It seems to me that top of the tree : PLAYLISTS has reference also to full main library. In addition to all playlists.
