Auto Play List with SQL SELECT command

Postby sopito » Sun Mar 11, 2012 8:48 am

Hi

I find the possibilities in MM to define criteria for autoplaylists and collections rather limited. If I am not mistaken you can either have A and B and C... or A or B or C...
Something like (A or B) and C is not possible.

At least for those who can write their own SQL statements it would be extremly helpful if there would be a possibility to enter custom SLECT statements as criterium for collections and autoplaylists. These collections and autoplaylists could then be populated with the songs having the selected ID

SELECT ID FROM songs WHERE ...

Regards
Stefan

Already requested.

You can still achieve this in MediaMonkey, but with a bit more work. You'll need multiple playlists and reference between them to do AND and OR.

It depends on what "AND/ORs" you're trying to do. Some of them are possible with a single playlist.
Awaiting for 10160 & 10168 to be fixed/implemented before thinking of moving to MMW4.1 + MMA.

Yes, indeed - I discovered the posibility of cross referencing playlists just today. However, I would still like to maintain my request, simply because it would be so much more powerful.
