Hi all,

I have asked this question before when I had an older MC but never got an answer. When is it saying in the tags when the song is Last Played? Is it after a certain amounts of minutes or is it after a certain percent of the length of song or when is that happen? I have the feeling that it is different? Sometimes it not shows date and time when it was played las time. Also after playing the song maybe 90%. So I just wonder what is the setting for that?

 Hi captor, If you stop or skip after fifty percent of duration played, number plays will increase by  one, and last played will be set as the time of that stop or skip action.

If these actions occur with less than fifty percent of duration, skip count will increase by one, and last skipped will be set as the time of the action.

Does that help?

Hi Marko, thank you for answering. Yes that helps, thank you :-)
So I play 50% or more of the duration then the date and time shows up in "Last Played". Do I understand that part correct?

I was not even aware of that there is a "Last Skipped" option. But I see that now and that is good to know as well. But it is the "Last Played" that is most important for me.

Can I change that myself? I mean if I for example only have played 20% of a duration, can I then manually change that to show for example Played at 2015-04-13?
I have seen there is a setting in Library Tools saying "Mark as Played". I have tried that but I think that is for another tag because nothing happens.

My first answer above deals with how MC deals with these four fields automatically, I should have mentioned also, that yes, if you have at least the latest stable MC release, you can also manually enter dates and times for last played, as well as manually edit the number plays field.

Thank you very much for you taking the time and answering.
