Play as radio - audiobooks getting into the mix
« on: June 09, 2010, 09:07:19 am »

I started off by right clicking "Big Time- Peter Gabriel" and clicked play as radio, it was working great but then after a few songs it played a track from one of the harry potter audiobooks.  I don't know how to prevent this.


Here is a screen shot: If you look it is track 7

when you click on 'play radio' from the toolbar, there comes a screen that let you set a rule for radio playback. you could exclude the audiobooks there..

Is there something wrong with my audiobooks that it thinks they could be like Big Time- Peter Gabriel. I would think it would auto exclude audiobooks.

There's nothing wrong with your audiobooks. Thankfully, the program does exactly what it's told. As gappie says, you just haven't yet told it what you want. You can use the same configuration dialog to restrict the selections to anything you like.

Maybe I don't understand what Play as radio does.  I thought that you choose a song and it picked other songs that were similar from your library. 

If it does that then there needs to be a correlation between my song and the audiobooks i don't see what the similarity could be... 

If it doesn't pick songs that are similar to the one you choose what is the intended function of "play as radio"

Try setting the Media Subtype in the tag for the audiobooks.
