Also remember that slimserver allows the possibility of multiple values in tags, with the separator as specified under Server settings > Behavior. You could create genres for 1960s, 1970s, etc. and random play within genres. For example, if the separator is a semi-colon, you could have "Punk; 1970s".
Alternatively, tagging rules for some formats allow for multiple tags of the same type. For FLAC & Ogg you could have "Genre=Punk" and "Genre=1970s" for the same track. BUT, either of these workarounds involve considerable effort in fiddling with tags, and I really like the original suggestion of having slim figure out how to make decade groups out of existing year tags. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25503 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
