Additional ways of doing the old Local Database

Name: Local Database - Analyzed
Filter: isscanned=1

Name: Local Database - Not Analyzed
Filter: isscanned=0

Name: Local Database - ALL
Filter: isscanned=1 or isscanned=0

And another one:
syntax: filename is not NULL

I tested all, there is a difference:
Top xxxx nbplay looks like it sorts by Artist.
Other methods keep the current sort.
This might give a performance difference (or maybe not) in big databases.

Is their a filter for "genre". I just wanted to know and if someone could let me know that would be great

Yes, just write the word "genre".

Example:

Top 20 nbplay and genre=latin

I sometimes have several genres for a song (Dance;Pop). That's why i setup my filters like this.

Folder Pop: Genre contains "Pop"
Folder Dance: Genre contains "Dance"
Folder Dance & Pop: Genre contains "Dance" OR Genre contains "Pop"

Is there a filter that separates BPM's with the star from those without?

Star means perfectly analysed and setup for automix ;)

for manual mixing (djing), there is no need to pay too much attention to that star

Great Filter for organizing by BPM

This will organize all files from 90 bpm to 95 bpm:
name: BPM 90 - 95
filter: bpm>=90 and bpm <=94


This will organize all files from 95 bpm to 100 bpm:
name: BPM 95 - 100
filter: bpm>=95 and bpm <=99

and so on...I organized my whole library by Beats Per Minute in like 10 minutes! Awesome tool, thanks cstoll informing me of it!

Hi All, So is it possible to filter individual words in the comment field? like if I have the word "(UK No1)" or "Mymix".
