Title: How to create "A and (B or C)" smartlist?
Post by: chrisjj on April 22, 2013, 09:29:15 pm

How can I create a smartlist that includes tracks in a certain playlist that also include either (or both) of two strings in Name?

I can find no way of getting this combination. Currently I have to use separate smartlist for each string, and a third to combine.

Thanks.

playlistid==playlist id ([Name]="black" or [Name]="white")

Thanks, MrC. That works fine.

I assume code (rather than GUI) is the only way to input this. Though GUI does output the round brackets: http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/937/regionzl.png .

if or is replaced by and, the round brackets show, er, as square: http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/2293/regionv.png

The ( and [ are available to the left and right of the input fields in the GUI.
Click them multiple times to toggle them.
I find it easier to just write the code for more complicated things.

Thanks. I wonder why these buttons are hidden.

Is there any documentation of the combinations? Such as (...])
