Title: How to locate Incomplete Albums
Post by: drc on February 16, 2012, 10:27:55 am
I'm trying to create a smartlist that can Identify incomplete albums (pretty large database, trying not to do a manual search). 

Currently, I have a lot of Album missing tracks, example, an album may be missing tracks  3, 5, 9...

I would like to create a smartlist such as:   Tracks are not sequential from 1 - 10... 

Someway to identify the album is incomplete.

Any suggestions

You can use a smartlist. MC has an integrated comand for your task. Your smartlist could look like this: [Media Type]=[audio] [Complete Album]=0 -[Album]=[].

From the wiki (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Multiple_Artist_Albums#Complete_Albums (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Multiple_Artist_Albums#Complete_Albums)):

Complete Albums
Media Center can automatically display complete and incomplete albums. An album is considered complete if all the files with the same [Album] value in the same directory:
  • are sequentially numbered tracks starting at 1
  • have at least 2 files or 10 minutes of audio
  • are Audio and have a non-empty [Album] value.
