yup. leaves are not hidden anywhere else. not only do the leaves appear, but i cant even add them to the playlist when i double click on the query.
like i said, underneath the query i can see the folders that the files are in, but no leaves.

files that are in the library do not have this problem. they work properly with @drop queries.


If it doesnt have any leaves then the files are getting picked up as playable types... Take a look at your console output under View->console and see if there are any warning messages...



i checked the console when i tried adding these files and there were no errors for the mp3 files that should have loaded, and the flac files gave this error msg:
"could not enumerate tracks (Unsupported format or corrupted file) on:
F:\Music\New Albums\The Who - Discography\01. The Who Sings My Generation\05. Much Too Much.flac"

i dragged the folder to a new playlist and all the files loaded in the playlist. they aee playing ok, there seems to be nothing worng with the files.

then i decided to select all these files and reloaded info from all the files. i refreshed the drop query and all the files are loaded. but these files are not in the database, when new files get dropped in there they will not load in the tree untill i reload info from them.

Hi,
I´m new to playlist - tree and i only want to have 2 queries...

1. By directory (like album list does)
2. By played ( 50 most played songs)

Could anyone please post this 2 queries as screenshots so that i can figure out how that works?

in PLT, how can I set format that hide nodes greater than nestlevel 3?

ex.
root
-music(nestlevel1)
--anime(nestlevel2)
---animation1(nestlevel3)
----album1(nestlevel4)  <---﹁
----album2(nestlevel4)  <--- -----  i wanna hide these nodes greater than nestlevel 3

I'm just come from other country, so my english is not pretty good, hope somebody know what I mean above.

Just write @hidden2 in that part of your format that represents the fourth nestlevel! There is a small bug that displays the +/- buttons in front of the parent node but Chris already putted it on the list of known bugs.

Is the format I write correct?
and Is the result normal for current version?

Why don't you use the format line inside the Edit box for queries?

For the 1, it seems to be :
Code: [Select]
$replace(%_path%,\,|)
in the format box, but for the second question, I'm interested too... I've tried
Code: [Select]
rating GREATER 1
(for the best rating, but it'll be the same for the most playing) as the criteria, but don't know how to sort properly (descending order)... I suppose it has something to do with the "population order" box, but don't succeed...

Because the variable for multiple tags in pt doesn't use the field remapping i tried to write a little string that achieves the same like this what worked for old pt 1.7.xx:  $if(%album artist%,#album artist#,#artist#)

I thought this simple string does the job:  $if($meta(album artist),%<album artist>%,%<artist>%)

But the string just gives me back the values of the album artists. It seems that the third part ("else") isn't used.
A bug?

Currently there is no way in Broser or PT to realize that what in Album List is simply done by "%<album artist>%"

I will try! 

But wouldn't then the values of %artist% been displayed even if there is a value for %album artist%?

Bug Fixes

    * fixed bug in @drop<> queries that are not in default format. bug was introduced by my test for file existance to stop crash.
    * increased line buffer to 1024 characters instead of 256. I think this may have been causing some issues.
    * enter / space now know the calling node - fixes issues with playlist names
    * fixed bug in $sum

New Features

    * option to turn off default queries - makes it easier to modify your layout in columns ui

Is it possible to create a query whose subfolders are the playlist files in a given directory?

For example, I have a directory full of playlist files, and I would like to see them each listed as branches of a query node, looking something like this:

Code: [Select]
--.m3u playlists
  --randommix.m3u
     +-01. track 1
     +-02. track 2
  +-someotherplaylist.m3u
  +-stillanotherpls.pls


Christopher suggested I use a @drop<> source, but that just creates subfolders based on artist (or whatever display string I use), rather than creating individual folders for the contents of each .m3u playlist file.

It looks like the @drop queries are a little different right now than in 0.8.3, so this doesnt look possible right now, but I am going to look into it..

i cant get the drop query to work at all. unless the files are actually loaded in  the media library. i even tried a new foobar configuration and used just columns UI and playlist tree. @drop queries do not work if the music isnt in the library; the files are unaccessable. the directory structure is still maintained in playlist tree but the files are not there. also, it seems the format must be set to @default for anything (even the empty directory structure) to display at all.

The issue with having to use @default format for @drops should have been fixed in 2.0.9.

I'll look into the other issue.

today i opened my foobar, i changed something in the layout, without touching playlist_tree settings, but after a restart all my queries had been deleted.

so i made them again but first of all they don't auto refresh anymore when a new track starts and if i click on redraw tree the label get right but the leaves are about an album that i listened before!
