Want Album or Artist is not filled view
« on: February 10, 2008, 08:49:38 am »

Try:

[Artist]=[] or [Album]=[]


That shows me all files that either an empty Artist field, an empty Album field, or both.

and is implied and not needed...
try wrapping your 'or' rule in parenthesis, it should work then...

[Media Type]=[Audio] ([Artist]=[] or [Album]=[]) ~sort=[Date],[Name]

works for me.
I clicked on Audio in the top left of the tree, then entered: [Media Type]=[Audio] ([Artist]=[] or [Album]=[]) ~sort=[Date],[Name] into the search bar (top right of MC)

Can you tell us where you are entering the search rule?
