Title: Share your innovative smartlists
Post by: JC on June 15, 2003, 11:12:57 am

Creative use of smartlists is one of the most flexible aspects of MC (IMHO). However, information on elaborate smartlists is spread out in various locations. I would like to propose that you share your favorite smartlists here so that people could get some insight into the power of this functionality.

Based on a post in this thread by dragyn, my most innovative smartlists are:

To summarize files with missing cover art:
[Image File]=""

To summarize files with embedded cover art:
-[Image File]=.,\,""

To summarize files with external cover art:
-[Image File]="" [Image File]=.,\

To summarize files with either type of cover art:
-[Image File]=""

Not a smartlist, but a view scheme, but it could be a smartlist too:

Newest Albums (unlistened): ~a [Number Plays]==0 ~sort=[date imported]-d ~n=50 [Media Type]=audio

Retrieves entire albums where the album contains at least one track with zero plays. Sort/limit shows the most recent albums, limited to 50 tracks.

Newest Albums: same thing, but minus Number Plays restriction.
