Time Listened

[pontrumlee]

Is there any way to tell or look at the total amount of music listened to in Musicbee? ie how much music has been played since install, in the last year/week, etc

Throwing things against the wall here.

One idea is this - In the left sidebar (may be auto-hidden by default, put your mouse all the way to the left to make it slide out if it is) there's an entry called "History."  If you have "show summary statistics" selected under Edit->Edit Preferences->Layout(1)->bottom panel, the time, size and number of files in your listening history will show at the bottom right.

Not sure if this includes repeats, though.  Maybe someone knows.

Another idea would be to edit the "Recently Played" playlist and change the "Last Played is in the last two weeks" restriction to "Last played is after <Your Install Date>." That would definitely not include duplicates because "Last Played" is the last time it was played. 

As I'm going through the possibilities, it seems I can think of none that is perfect.  May be a good idea for a plugin - something that would keep a running total of play times.
