Title: More Recently Ripped?
Post by: Mr ChriZ on July 30, 2006, 04:48:45 am

I find Recently ripped disappears to quick.

Often I want to tidy things up after I rip them, but sometimes
I don't get time to do it till later, by which time the
playlist has disappeared.
I tried to create a playlist which would show me stuff
that was ripped within the past 20 days but it didn't
work.  Is this possible?  Heres what I tried:
[media type]=[audio] [date ripped]=<20d ~sort=[date ripped]-d

Many people complain about Recent Playing Nows/Imported/Ripped
but I find them quite useful, I wish they didn't disappear but stayed
as history just like in an internet browser.

All my retail cds are marked as such in the cd/dvd database by having a custom field filled with Retail. When I rip a cd, that tag is set on the ripped files too.

[archive]=retail ~sort=[import date]-d lists all files that have been ripped from retail cds with the most recent rips at the top.

MC's [date imported] field includes the time imported as well as the date, and I find that often queers the lists, so I made an [import date] field to sort by using FormatDate([Date Imported,0], yyyy//MM//dd) and get much better results from that.

If you choose a similar route, I'd still base your exclusion on the [date imported] field....

[archive]=retail ~sort=[import date]-d [date imported]=<20d

Cheers Marko, I'll give that ago.
