Re: SmartPlaylists (1.1.3)

Hi fabien,

a few days ago I started to install MediaPortal and it works fine now. Now I'd like to add a playlist plugin where I can randomly collect playlist on defined criteria. As far as I can see SmartPlaylist seems to be the right one. Unfortunately it doesn't work until now. I installed it as described in the readme file but when I start SmartPlaylist in MP I get a message "Missing or invalid smartplaylist.xml at c:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Skin\Blue3Wide\smartplaylist.xml".

I checked it several times but I definitely copied this file to the folder.

Do you have any idea what I could have done wrong? Maybe it's different with Windows Vista?

I'd appreciate your help.

Harry

Hi Harry,
is still there a Blue3Wide in 1.1.3? I guess only "default" directories replace now. Check it out that, tell me.
Try to test also with another skin.

Re: SmartPlaylists (1.1.3)

Hi fabien,

yes, I have this directory in the skin folder. I also tried to copy smartplaylist.xml into this directory but this doesn't work either.

Edit: Yes, I tried it with different skins (f.e. Maya and Blue3 normal). Got the same error.

2. Edit: I just re-installed (after complete uninstall) MP with a fresh download (I thought that I may have done something wrong) but it's the same situation.

Re: SmartPlaylists (1.1.3)

Hi Harry,

you right, a </control> statement was missing in the skin file.
Please download once again the plugin i have just updated with the correct file.

Thanks for your report.

Thanks a lot. Now it works fine. It is a simple tool that does exactly what I want because it's as flexible as MySQL statements are.

Re: SmartPlaylists (1.1.3)

<smartPlaylist name="All Rock songs from the 70s" query="WHERE iYear
== 1970 OR iYear == 1971 OR iYear == 1972 OR iYear == 1973 OR iYear == 1974 OR iYear == 1975 OR iYear == 1976 OR iYear == 1977 OR iYear == 1978 OR iYear == 1979 AND strGenre == '| Rock |' ORDER BY RANDOM() LIMIT ALL"></smartPlaylist>

This works except for the LIMIT ALL if i put a number in place of ALL it will work. Is there a way to signify ALL.

Thanks

Re: SmartPlaylists (1.1.3)

It should work if you use this statement without limitation:

<smartPlaylist name="All Rock songs from the 70s" query="WHERE iYear == 1970 OR iYear == 1971 OR iYear == 1972 OR iYear == 1973 OR iYear == 1974 OR iYear == 1975 OR iYear == 1976 OR iYear == 1977 OR iYear == 1978 OR iYear == 1979 AND strGenre == '| Rock |' ORDER BY RANDOM()"></smartPlaylist>
