Title: how to make a smartlist\library of dates for images and video?
Post by: HTPC4ME on October 14, 2009, 03:09:47 pm

hi i've finally finished tagging all my personal photos and videos.. how do i make a smartlist or playlist of all videos\images by date?
meaning i'd select 2006 and all images and videos from 2006 would show up and could be viewed. also will help for more in depth tagging... cause then i could view them all in one view and fine tune the dates\times.

Thank You

hey.. that is only half an hour.

actualy i was searching for a nice thread from marco about this stuff, a long time ago but still true. can not find it though.  :(

for year, i guess the year tag would do. i use a calculated field for month and use that as a second collumn in a pane or thv.

do  a search for marko and something with day and month, guess its somewhere on the 12 forum.

and when you get stuck, try to be more precise what you want and where you get stuck..

There may be others.

one thing you could do is just start of with a pane view, put year in the first pane, in the second put an expression like:

Code: [Select]

clean([month])&DataType=[Month]
put them in any order or add day.
