create smart playlist based on file type and directory
« on: July 31, 2006, 09:27:46 pm »

Hi,

I'm trying to create a smart playlist based on file directory and file type (eg. folder1 and .mp3).  Is this possible? I could create one for file type but don't see any fields for a adding directory to this condition.

thank you.

Not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but I do something similar for my podcasts.  Each goes to its own directory, so I create a smartlist for each.  For example this limits the results to only items in my 'Security Now' folder.  Any of the modifiers ('[', ']', etc.) work with this too.:

location="E:\Audio\Podcasts\Security Now"

There is also a calculated field 'Filename(path)' that contains the directory the file is in.
