The following smartlist used to return 1 complete random album. Since upgrading to 10.0.73 it just returns 1 track.

Has somthing changed in MC to cause this? I have several similar '1 random album' smartlists that all do the same.

~a ~n=1 -[Album Artist (auto)]=[(Multiple Artists)] -[Genre]=[Celtic],[Christmas],[Classical],[Comedy],[New Age],[Opera],[Show],[Spoken Wrd] -[Artist]=[Griffin Technology] [Ashleys iPOD]=[Yes] -[album]=<>,greats,greatest,best

The handling of modifiers (sorting / duplicates / full albums) chnaged such that the order matters now.

In your example you need the ~n=1 second to last and the ~a at the end.

JLee is right that the order of the ~ things matters now.

Just to be clear:

"Rock ~a ~n=1" would be the same as "~a ~n=1 Rock"

"Rock ~n=1 ~a" would be different though.

Thanks Matt it's clearer now.  

~n=1 ~a will get you 1 track and then change it to a full album whereas..
~a ~n=1 will get you full albums but then change it to just one track.

Thanks everyone. That fixed it.

It would be nice if there was a modifier for Limit = 1 full album.
