To be clear, I'm looking to activate only the selected track, or tracks, in my list of search or filter results, and not the entire list. I would also like to know how to create buttons to add the entire result set to the bottom of the playlist, or to the next position in the playlist.
Hi Quentin, I am usiong the gtk3 version. I see what you're saying about being able to select tracks. So I have buttons I use to set the current result list as the playlist, or to queue the results. I use these buttons to play or queue search results and filter results.
These are the buttons I haven't been able to figure out: 'Play selected track(s) now (but don't alter the playlist)', 'Queue selected track(s)', 'Add selected track(s) to the bottom of the playlist', 'Add selected tracks to the next position in the playlist'.
I know there are commands for these based on your activation mouse key, but if I could create buttons, or menu items, that activated selected tracks, then double-click would be a non-issue.

So, for instance, let's say I have these playlists:
To answer your question, the playlist has the month and year of the added date. The day doesn't matter to me and can just be '1'.
Code Select
"May 2013": !SongArray::Named 9037 9033 9030 9036 9035 9029 9034 9032 8993 8996 8999 8992 9001 8991 8994 9000 8997 8998 8995 9002 9003

Quentin, thanks so much for the reply. I was able to fudge the date for a single track:
and it worked exactly as expected. I see how playlists are stored:
So it looks like I could group my songs into playlists, based on the month I want them to show as added, then set all these timestamps to xx/01/20xx (but in timestamp format). It sounds like this is where I would need the script. I would need it to loop through those IDs, find those tracks in the library based on ID, and change the timestamps on them to what I want. How do you recommend I go about this?

I have a similar problem. The tags are edited with easyTag. GMB doesn't show "Komponist" (german for Composer), but if I got to extended properties I see Composer. Maybe this is a problem with the tag translation? I added a screenshot with properties and extended.
Thx a lot!
Thx a lot!
Have you tried re-reading the tags of your music after enabling the 'Composer Tag'? Just try it with one song -> Right click on song and click 're-read tags'.
Hello, the problem was with the configuration file, but unfortunately I did not exactly notice the bug. I fixed it by comparing a brand new config file and my corrupted file with the software meld. I started by copying the end of my file, doing tests each time I copy / paste, until the problem reappears. What I do know is that the problem was at the beginning of the file ... Sorry for the lack of precision and thank you very much for your answer.
No just send me one of the "playlists indicating what month a song was added". I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, does the file contains a date for each song, of is it the playlist itself that is named after the date? I need to know how to get the date from the playlist.
The problem with that is you need to be able to select the row without activating it.
Are you using the gtk3 version (still in beta) ? It might handle touchscreen better.
Also are you using the SongList or the SongTree, the SongList use the standard TreeView gtk widget so it might work better (though it is a bit slow with lots of songs in the gtk3 version).

Hi, I don't know why anything in the config file could have that effect. Can you post a screenshot of that "black page" ? If you think it comes from the config file, you can send it to me (squentin gmail.com) I'll take a look.
Currently you can only save the play count in the tag (Settings->Fields->Play count->check "Read/Write in file tag"->restart, though it will only write modified play counts, if you want to write all existing play counts, you then have to go in Settings->Tags->Update Tags->select "play count".
About writing "last play", I've been thinking about adding write options recently, maybe this year?
