Let's call one x/y/MP3 and the other one x/y/FLAC. I can find the advanced search function (though I don't see the saved search box you have up top) Now, what's the connection between your second pic and third pic? How do I "make" that separate library and have it listed under library views (I only have one item there now)?

But then I unchecked then checked it again, and chose "all libararies" up top (though I only had one), and it suddenly worked again.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] separate libraries?
It's a fairly trivial task to make libraries out of flac or mp3 files without restructuring your file system. 29655 29656 +---+ |Filename: lib5.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=29656| +---+ *Server - LMS 8.0.0 *Pi4B 4GB/Flirc case/pCP 6.0.0 18K library, playlists & LMS cache on SSD (ntfs) *Study -* Pi3B+/pCP 5.0.0/pi screen/HiFiBerry DAC+/jivelite, *Lounge* - Pi2/pCP 5.0.0 > HiFiBerry DIGI+ > AudioEngine DAC1 > AVI DM5 *Dining Room* - Squeezebox Boom *Garage* - Squeezebox Touch > Edifier R980T *Spares* - 1xTouch, 1xSB3, 1xRadio, 7xRPi kidstypike's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10436 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111797 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

There* is* a switch library function, but you'd need to arrange your file system to suit. I have a library of 18,000+ tracks that I use regularly, (Squeezebox music), but I also have my wife's music, spare music, classical music and Christmas music. All these are in separate folders. I can easily switch to using the contents of any/all of these folders as my library. I set up "Library Views" using "Advanced Search" criteria is "path contains".

This probably won't work for me, because I actually added something like "FLAC - " to the album names of all my FLACs, so they probably won't be seen as duplicates to LMS. eduardoo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=25850 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111797 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] separate libraries?
all the time to clutter my library. A long time ago, I have the MP3 folder listed on the folder list on LMS but with all items (music, picture, etc) unchecked, and that used to allow me to go into the MP3 folder via "music folder" view, but it's no longer the case. That should still work. Make sure you've enabled the "Browse Filesystem" or similar item in Settings/Player/Additional Browse Modes. -- Michael ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] separate libraries?
I have LMS (7.9.X) set up on my QNAP NAS. On the NAS, I have my FLAC files and MP3 files stored under two different main folders. Most of the time, I just need to access the flac files, so the flac folder is what the LMS is set to scan. However, from time to time, it would be nice if I can access that MP3 folder/database without having it there all the time to clutter my library. A long time ago, I have the MP3 folder listed on the folder list on LMS but with all items (music, picture, etc) unchecked, and that used to allow me to go into the MP3 folder via "music folder" view, but it's no longer the case. Is there a way to set up with two libraries and call them up separately and easily? I tried looking into the settings and plugins and remain clueless as to what can allow me to do that.
