Title: Smartlists: Only list my favorite artists, from which I have more than n songs
Post by: Dopas on October 05, 2007, 06:15:10 pm

I'm trying to create a smartlist that only brings back the songs from artists from which I have more than n songs. I was able to do that for artists that have more than 1 song, by only showing artist with duplicates: ~dup=[Artist].

But I want to be able to show only the songs of the artists that I have 10 songs or more.
Has anyone done that already?

Thanks for the help.
Dom

'fraid not, no.
The playing field that the MC database and search engine provide for us is huge... really huge. For the most part, you are limited only by your own imagination, but the truth is that boundaries do exist, and you just bumped into one of them....

You could make a custom library field to record an artists 'track count' that you maintain yourself, and then you could use that info to create your desired smart list, but you'd need to want it real bad to go down that road as it's a lot of work and would be extremely high maintainence keeping it up to date.
