Hi,
My apologies for this basic question, but where are smart playlists stored in builds post 0.2.4? I’ve just upgraded to mt-daapd 0.3.0_pre1376 on Gentoo and noticed that none of the old smart playlists “survived”. This I imagine is to do with the new sql base for versions post 0.2.4. The new smart playlists are easy to create, but I can’t seem to figure out where they are stored.
Thanks for your help,

DavidThey actually live in the database. You can look at them using a sqlite browser, and can back them up using the sqlite command to dump the “playlists” table.
I think they are going to end up moving back out of the db, though.

Yes, I hope to migrate stuff right out. Probably won’t use the same 0.2.4 style, as the parser is completely different, but I anticipated pulling the data out of the db and populating the playlist the first time.

I think the roku 1.1 is about done, then that’s the next thing I’m going to do. Concurrently with working on UPnP.

05/05/2007 at 2:25 PM #10534spoo333ParticipantThanks, Ron. Two more questions regarding the new smart playlists.
Are the e.g. genre descriptions case sensitive? ie: does it make a difference whether it is “tribal techno” or “Tribal Techno”?
How do I define what used to be “Date after 3 weeks ago”, ie the tracks that were added over the last 3 weeks?
Cheers,

DavidThey are case sensitive, but if you do an “include”, then it isn’t.
So:
genre includes “Tribal Techno” gets both “tribal techno” and “Tribal Techno”.
as far as the date one, something like:
time_added after 3 weeks before today
or
time_added > 3 weeks before today
Eventually, I’ll make “ago” a synonym for “before today”, but once you know how they go, it’s okay.
More details here, btw: http://wiki.fireflymediaserver.org/Smart_playlists
