The 'Default' web interface skin doesn't redisplay the Advanced Search form and the 'Save As' fields when performing an advanced search, it just shows the search results. One needs to switch to a different web interface skin to perform the advanced searches and save them as library views. dborod's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21049 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112733 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Scan your whole library, then using Advanced Search, create a library view for flac, and one for mp3. You can then use either flac, mp3, or all your library. Instructions for creating a Library view for flac 'here:' (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?111797-separate-libraries=968966=1#post968966) *Step 4* in the instructions is where everyone seems to get stuck (like you did), ignore all the tabbed pages, you won't see those again. Then you can create a Library view for mp3. As said before you can select any Library View you wish or use the "Default" which is all your library. 31244 Here's a view of what I see under "Albums" when I use Library View "Christmas music". 31245 +---+ |Filename: LV04.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=31245| +---+ *Server - LMS 8.0.0 *Pi4B 4GB/Flirc case/pCP 6.1.0 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=112733 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

I'm now trying this and rescanning my library. This might be the only way to have full functionality but restricted to lossless files. But what if I want access to all of my files? Can I have two libraries attached to LMS, e.g., by keeping them on a separate part of my hard drive or by having a separate mysqueezebox.com account? kidstypike wrote: > Or if you really don't wish LMS to scan your lossy files, you can select > that option here: > > 31236 JohnCLeBlanc's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69548 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112733 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

If you set up an advanced search, with Flac as the filter and save that it might work.

Library Views will do what you want. Use LMS "Advanced Search" to select your criteria, then make this a Library View.
