I chose to do it this way as I can control what gets tagged as recent as when it stops being tagged as recent.
I found auto facilities would show things where I have changed the tags or re-ripped for some reason as part of the New list when really I didn't want them there.
Also sometimes I want to keep some albums on the recent list for longer than usual.
So a different approach to the same issue.
Hello, i would like to know how did you do this, cold you be so jently to explain me that? I put my new added music in a folder that i calde "new CD" but how to reach this folder in a short way? Thank you anyway.
I use MediaMonkey to tag my files. It provides 5 custom tag fields (Custom1 to Custom5). I can only assume that custom or user created spare fields are part of the tagging standard. I use a three of these custom fields for 1) tagging as Recent, 2) The Dynamic Range of the Album and 3) the date I added it.
In MinimWatch I then set the Custom tags as indexTags so they are available to the control point, in my case either Kinsky or Kazoo.
I can then go into the control point and see Custom1 as one of the high level indexes, selecting it gives me Recent and [unknown] as values. [unknown] are the albums not tagged as recent.
As I said previously, I choose to do it this way as it allows me to decide what is Recent or not rather than a program using date added or changed or whatever.
I normally flag new rips as Recent and keep them as that until I feel I know the album. Some drop off the recent list faster than others. I also often play the Recent set of albums on random play.
I think most tagging programs provide you with custom fields or allow you to create them.
I always prefer to use tagging rather than moving albums in and out of folders on disk.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need further info.
Thank you a lot for your help, i will try the same and let you know, thank you again!
