Hi!
I am not sure if one can address features requests on the forums but I have been using MC for a while now and I really believe it is the best media player out there. However I believe some improvement of the Filter Panes could be made.
1) Tag1 AND tag2 instead of tag1 OR tag2
When you click on some tag in the Panes (e.g. Artist: The Beatles), all the files that contain this tag are shown. If you select an additional tag (ctrl+click) in the same Pane (e.g. Artist: The Rolling Stones), the songs by both bands for instance are shown. But you know that already.
Now things become more complicated for tag fields that allow multiples values. This is the case for a field like Moods. One song can be both Happy and Energetic. Let's say I want to listen to songs both Happy and Energetic. If I select these two tags in the Moods Pane what I will get are all "Happy songs" and all "Energetic songs", and not only the songs that are both.
I know that the expected result can be obtained via the use use of search expressions but I believe that the ability to do it directly via the Filter Panes would be easier to use.
2) Exclude songs that contains selected tag
Also, one might also want to exclude some songs from the list below the Filter Panes. Let me explain. I have selected The Beatles and The Rolling Stones in the Artist Pane. Hence all songs by these bands are displayed. But I want to exclude songs which mood is sad for example. It would be great if I could simply click on Sad in the Moods Pane (with an alt+click maybe) so that all sad songs are removed.
I have been looking for a software that would have functionality but couldn't find any. Thus I think such features would be a real advantage over other media players.
If the developers think the idea is good, I will be glad to help.
Best regards,
