Examples

Here are few examples of the kinds of rules you can create:

 comment=Italian bitrate=320 genre=opera

Media Center returns all opera files with a bitrate of 320 that include "Italian" in the comment field.

 lastplayed=<60 length=300 custom3=cd-45

This results in a list of all songs played in the last hour (smaller than < 60 minutes) with a length of 300 seconds, and 'cd-45' in the custom3 field.

 playlist=charts\top 40 1983 lastplayed=10-30 

This returns in a list of all songs in the '"Charts > Top 40 1983" Playlist that have been played between 10 and 30 minutes ago.

  size=>7000

The result is a list of all files larger than (>) 7000kbs, or 7MB

Note: To manually type in an exclusion, simply put a "-" before the rule.

 -artist=Sting,Beatles

This returns a list of artists excluding both Sting and the Beatles.

Note: The length field is calculated in seconds. The lastplayed field is calculated in minutes: <20 means smaller than, or within the last 20 minutes, whereas >20 means greater than, thus before the last 20 minutes. Using 10-30 means between 10 and 30 minutes.
