Hi everyone,
Is it possible to create a Filter that displays all songs from the current year or today's date, to a chosen year. For example (current year) to 2005 or (today's date) to 1998. The goal is to create a dynamic list of songs from the last 10 years so that in 5 years time that list will still only show songs from the last 10 years.
Thanks in advance
Adam

If going by when the song was added to the database, create a filter folder with the amount of days like below.

Thanks. That's one way of doing it. My only concern would be if I updated tags at any point that would reset the song in question.

No as the data is stored exclusively in the VDJ database.

"First Seen" is the date VirtualDJ added the song on the database.
Typically this should not change by modifying tags.
However this would not be much helpful if you started using VirtualDJ 5 years ago, or if you added a 1996 track on your music collection yesterday.
It would make the song(s) still appear in the last decade filter
For me it would be best to go by fixed dates:
Year >= 2015
This will always return tracks from 2015 until the current date.
You can also make it like this: Year >= 2015 AND Year <=2020
Finally you can try to use one of the automatic ranges VirtualDJ can provide:
group by Year range 10
