How can I get the song numbers by *.ext ?
You know what the fellow said – in Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace – and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

Hopefully a member with stronger mind-reading capabilities than me understands what you are trying to achieve.

My wish is to somehow get the number of songs based on the extension - mp3 = x, flac = x2, m4a = x3 ...
Maybe not stronger mind-reading capabilities for answer,maybe !

I suggest creating an auto-playlist for each file extension. When you open the playlist in Track Details view you'll see the number of tracks with that extension in the Status Bar. If you open the playlist in Album View, the Status Bar will show the number of albums.
Download the latest MusicBee v3.5 or 3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.

Not available to show in Column Browser directly, but OP could create a virtual tag that just uses <.ext> and display that.
Right-click the heading and select Show Count and you have a list of each file type in your library, how many tracks you have with each extension, and an easy way to filter them.

Bee excellent to each other...

Ah, you're right. It doesn't allow Kind, either. Good suggestion.
