This is a feature I would use too, but for different reasons. I've got an Unsorted/Untagged folder which is mostly just a mess. I also keep my Classical music in a separate folder since It needs to be tagged and handled differently.

I've been using Strawberry for a couple of weeks, and the only thing that's missing is a simple delimiter option for multi-genre support, will this ever be added?

Any news on those suggestions? While trying out Strawberry those were more or less the things that I noticed also.
Especially the wasted space when not using the analyser and not being able to hide the menu bar.
When the analyser bar is not used, couldn't the space be used for the progress bar / moodbar?

I'm new to Strawberry and have the same problem with different album versions. I think this would be a great addition. My current solution for this is to add the catalog number to the grouping field and set it as the third grouping parameter. It would be much easier to add this as a grouping tag and I kinda expected this would already be possible.

@jonas StopForumSpam is very good but not sure it around anymore but here is website https://www.stopforumspam.com/

@mike_jones Yes! I tried out Strawberry but had to abandon it because I couldn't get the sort of smart playlists that I'm used to. Similar to you, I have a smart playlist that says:

3 star tracks that haven't been played in the last 2 years - Randomize and give me 30

4 star tracks that haven't been played in the last 2 months - Randomize and give me 30

5 star tracks that haven't been played in the last 2 weeks - Randomize and give me 30

Unrated tracks that haven't been played in the last month - Randomize and give me 30

None of the tracks have "[Turn off]" in the description.

Winamp accomplished this (without limiting the # of tracks per pull) by allowing you to edit the search string as a literal text string, and accepting parenthesis. So my WinAmp smart shuffle would look like (([Rating] = 5 and [Last_Played] > 14) or ([Rating] = 4 and [Last_Played] > 60) or ([Rating] = 3 and [Last_Played] > 730) or ([Rating] IS NULL and [Last_Played] > 30)) and [Comment] NOT LIKE '%[Turn Off]%'

MediaMonkey accomplishes this by allowing you to to create smart playlists similar to what Strawberry currently offers, but then you can also create a smart playlist that says "include these other playlists." So each one of those bullet points would be a smart playlist on its own (we'll just say they're named 3Star, 4Star, 5Star, and Unrated), and then you would have a smart playlist that says "Tracks that appear in playlists: [3Star, 4Star, 5Star, Unrated]" I generally tuck the "support playlists" in a folder out of sight, but really enjoy the flexibility of the MM model.

I am currently limping along with MediaMonkey in WINE because none of the native Linux players appear to provide this sort of playlist functionality.

@rajm @mncroc @rlkeeney support this request, would really make sence to be able to sort/order (Smart) Playlists!

It doesn't feel right to fill this thread with noise. Continuing in General Discussion: https://forum.strawberrymusicplayer.org/topic/5717/gaps-between-tracks

Yes, that's a good option for the currently played track. But as far as I know, it won't work for the selected track(s): we can't get that list with Strawberry commands or from dbus.

That's why I had done that dirty hack to Clementine's context menu. It got and sent the selection to kdialog, a KDE's zenity alternative that worked like you propose. Another option, which I still use, is drag & drop to a .desktop file or plasma widget that deals with the list.

And you're also right that it would be harder for less experienced and non *nix users to do it. Much easier is "Hey, download my .bat file and create a new User command called ReplayGain that executes C:\somewhere\file.bat %S".

@Gustavo-L-Conte I think Jonas already answered a topic like this in the past, but I'm not entirely sure. Either way, I think captchas are a good idea to control spam.
