Exclude a genre in a Magic node

[Jon Isaksson]

Hello,

I currently have a magic node Album Artist|child of:artist\<album artist|trim:1>\<album artist>\<album>

But recently I have added quite a few audio books so would like to have a way of omitting them from my "Album Artist" node.

I am sure this is a really noob-ish question but how can I rewrite the node to exclude the Genre "Audio books"?

Second question have anyone good some good nodes for organising Audio books?

Many thanks for your help
Jon

Code: Select all

Album Artist|child of:artist|Filter:<Genre> Not Like '%Audio books%'\<album artist|trim:1>\<album artist>\<album>

You should be more specific.

Hi ZvezdanD,

Many thanks for the quick response

Code: Select all

Album Artist|child of:artist|Filter:<Genre> Not Like '%Audio books%'\<album artist|trim:1>\<album artist>\<album>

That solved it! Thank you!

Yes sorry that wasnt a very considerate question I made.

Thinking about it I used the above form and just changed it to

Code: Select all

Audio books|child of:artist|Filter:<Genre> Like '%Audio books%'\<album artist|trim:1>\<album artist>\<album>

What I realised was that I missing the ability to select Disc #
How would I write the above node so under "album" it also sorted by "disc#"?
It doesnt appear to be as simple as just add \<disc #> at the end.

I assume that because the code for the field isnt "disc#"?

Thanks
Jon

You should add <Disc number>. I recommend that you read the PDF manual with explanation of all supported fields. You have a link in the first post of the Magic Nodes thread.
