Title: User defined Library not listing in smartlist
Post by: didomp3 on January 29, 2009, 02:47:12 pm

Just want to say Great Program!!!! A small footprint is only a small part of what makes MJ the best music organizer that I’ve ever used.
Anyway, got a question about user define libraries.

I recently setup several new -User Library Fields–
under Tools>Options>Library & Folders>User Library Fields. I set up each new field so I could list each type of music in an individual column by a persons name. The columns are set up fine in all playlist etc. However when I go to setup a Smartlist and apply ‘rules’ in it’s drop-down box, none of the library fields are listed there. Which basically means that I cannot search my new ‘user defined library fields’ at all.

Anyone know of a way to add my new ‘user defined library fields’ into smartlist?

Thanks for any help.
David

I just created a simple field called "Matt's Field"

When I do "Add Smartlist", I see "Matt's Field" in the list.

I'm not sure what might be different.  Make sure you have the latest Media Center 13 installed.

Also, you might double-check the "Flags" for the field to make sure it's applying to the media types you're working with.

Are you using Media Jukebox?  Or Media Center?

Thanks for the kind words.  And welcome to Interact.
