Hi,
I have a magic node that plays 30 random tracks from a given folder. However, I want to add to that a filter such that it only plays tracks that have never been played before. For the later I know that I need the following:

Code: Select all

<Played> = 0

My current mask looks like this:

Code: Select all

<Group|name:My Magic Nodes|Show tracks:Yes>\30 Random Tracks|Icon:Top level|Child of:Library|Filter:<Path> Like 'C:\New Music'\<Title|Sort order:Random|Top:30|Show rank:Yes>

The problem is that I cannot find where and how to insert the "played" part of the query without producing an error in MM.
Help with this would be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Viper21

With a bit perseverance and managed to find the solution on my own. I am posting it below if anyone else is interested.

Code: Select all

<Group|name:My Magic Nodes|Show tracks:Yes>\30 Random Unplayed Tracks|Icon:Top level|Child of:Library|Filter:<Played> = 0 AND <Path> Like 'C:\New Music'\<Title|Sort order:Random|Top:30|Show rank:Yes>

I'm trying to create a node in MagicNodes-4.2 using the Series field but the field is missing from the dropdown selection and the node doesn't work if I manually add it:


This works:
Videomask|Child of:Library|MM filter:Video\<Genre>\<Title>

This doesn't work:
Videomask|Child of:Library|MM filter:Video\<Series>\<Genre>\<Title>

Many thanks for any suggestions!

Darryl

UPDATE: I found the answer.
With Video, it seems that <Series> is synonymous with <Album>. Therefore, this works:
Videomask|Child of:Library|MM filter:Video\<Album>\<Genre>\<Title>

Great script!

It must be simple but i can't get it right: i have:

Code: Select all

<Group|Name:Tracks...>\eerste track from alle Albums|Icon:Top level|Filter:Songs.ID IN (SELECT (SELECT S1.ID FROM Songs AS S1 WHERE S1.IDAlbum = Songs.IDAlbum ORDER BY TrackNumber LIMIT 1) FROM Songs GROUP BY Songs.IDAlbum)|Child of:Library|Position:First child\<Gelezen>\<Title>\<Album|Trim:1|Statistic:Count(Datetime added)>

every time i open this node the column "added"is sorted old to new, i can't seem to figure out how to have the last added album/files on top.(without having to click the column header twice )
Thanks

[ezdropper]

Can anybody tell me how to create a custom filter that shows Albums with Album Volume not equal?

[Darryl_Gittins]

Can some smart and kind person please help me to make this work in Magic nodes? IT worked long ago in an earlier version but I can't make it go any more.

<album and artist|top:70 percent|sort by:avg(played)|sort order:asc>

Many thanks!

[thiagorobis]

Is there a filter or function that can detect when the field has fewer letters than a determiando number of characters?
For example, would a filter that detects songs with Lyrics field less than 100 characters.

I just found out that MM developers added a possibility for sharing Magic nodes over DLNA/UPnP since MM build 1624.

It would be nice if someone who is using that option confirms if this works as it should, so MM developers could close the related issue.

Is there a way to set it so that while im browsing a node and click on an item it expands, but when i open a new item in the same node the previously open item closes? so that only one item is open?

Because at the moment i have to close them manually..
