Creating auto-playlists with multiple folders

Hey I want to create an auto-playlist with all folders that contain the word 'Pristine Classical' in it. I've tried using path has command but it only picks up folders that start with search query. My word is at the end of folder names.

Not sure I understand, did you try:
Code: [Select]
"$directory_path(%path%)" HAS "Pristine Classical"

Another question: I have three folders named 'Simon Rattle' but I only to want to include two of them. I tried using "$directory_path(%path%)" HAS "G:/Classical/Concerts/Simon Rattle" but that didn't work.

The folders are in:
G:\Classical\Concerts\Simon Rattle
G:\Classical\YouTube\Simon Rattle

I need help with a similar autoplaylist. I want to create one with the following two folders:

G:\Songs\David Bowie\6. Bootlegs
G:\Songs\David Bowie\2. Live

What should the syntax be?

The same syntax as before for each folder, and then join both parts with the operator OR:

Code: [Select]
<query for live> OR <query for bootleg>

A small follow up question related to auto-playlist: I want to create a new auto-playlist that *does* not include .cue files. I have been trying various codes but none work:

Code: [Select]
title HAS "overture" or title HAS "prelude" AND %codec% NOT "cue"
title HAS "overture" or title HAS "prelude" AND %$ext(path)% NOT "cue"
title HAS "overture" or title HAS "prelude" AND $ext(path) NOT "cue"

Without being able to test since I'm not on PC, two things to note -

1) NOT can only go before the expression.
2) Title Formatting functions need to be in quotes. (And I'm not sure you need quotes where you have them above)

Code: [Select]
title HAS overture OR title HAS prelude AND NOT "$ext(%path%)" IS cue

See what that does ...
