Questions / Favorite artists query
« on: December 04, 2019, 04:31:43 AM »
I'm looking for a way to generate a list of favorite artists and I haven't been able to do it thus far. What I want is a list of album artists wherein the # of tracks I have rated as Loved by them exceeds 5. I couldn't find a way to do this with auto playlists and I don't understand how the library reporting tools work to know if I could achieve it via that method. Can anyone help?
EDIT: I was thinking about this more and I think I have an idea what will do it but I don't know how to actually do it.
1. create a custom tag "AA Love Count"
2. Run an auto library report that grabs the total tracks that I've loved by an Album artist and write that number to the tag. (can you apply this tag to all tracks across your whole library? I really need some sort of super ELI5 tutorial about how the library reports work)
3. create an auto playlist that uses my Loved tracks playlist as the source that says "match all tracks where AA Love Count exceeds 5"
If someone can walk me through the actual process for doing that I'd be grateful.
