Morning All

Is there a way to generate a list purely just of the albums and not tracks ie


Simple Minds - Greatest Hits - 2018 - 17 Tracks - 58:01:14

Regards

Steve

Not exactly the way you describe, but see if the Collapse Albums setting gets close: http://musicbee.wikia.com/wiki/Tracks_View#Collapse_Albums

just add groupings in 'library reports': 'album artist', 'album' and aggregated function 'sum(duration)'. its if i understood you correctly.

you might want also to add 'count(url)': its for number of tracks in album.

The 'count' for tracks isn't reporting correctly however the time is - just noticed it once on an album with 14 tracks and reporting 1 track although the total time for the artist is exact

is that album a cuesheet file? if so its not supported. more exactly you can try 'count(title)', but all titles in album must be unique (sometimes - rarely - its not the case).

edit: also you can try 'count(track number)' if all track's numbers are filled correctly (i.e. unique).

Hi Boroda - I think I may have misunderstood your original post here:-


'count(url)'

what is the (url) part

thanks
