Yes you can, just enter this as query (in foo_playlist_gen format):
CODE
(artist HAS artist1) OR (artist HAS artist2) OR (artist HAS artist3) OR (artist HAS artist4)

well 1. is (artist HAS trancemaster)
but how should i type to get: all with artist whatever should show as one album maby with a [+] in front...
but i would mostly want sorting by filename:
101_artist_-_trackname-relese.mp3
102_artist_-_trackname-relese.mp3
103_artist_-_trackname-relese.mp3
...
110_artist_-_track-relese.mp3
...
201_artist_-_track-relese.mp3
but %album%|%title% don't do it for me... i want more like:
%album%|<read-next-line>
%filename_but_only_before_first_'-'_symbol%<dot><space>%title%
so the output should be: "101. Artist - Trackname"
QUOTE(DigitalLF)
%filename_but_only_before_first_'-'_symbol%<dot><space>%title%
CODE
$substr(%_filename%,1,$sub($strchr(%_filename%,-),1)). %title%

that great.. but i thought wrong... most files started like this:
101-artist_-_track-rls.mp3
101_artist_-_track-rls.mp3
101_-_artist_-_track-rls.mp3
101-track-rls.mp3
101_track-rls.mp3
101_-_track-rls.mp3
or even 01*-rls.mp3, 001*-rls.mp3, 1001*-rls.mp3
world would be easy if that could be fixed

If you could be more precise, you would help us to make it easier.
I'm not sure I fully understand your problem, but I think you'd better tag or rename your files in a coherent way, rather than trying to find a format string that will work in so many different cases... Try to use freedb and masstagger to tag or rename your files

no way i hate renameing thats the most horible thing a man can do to music...
formating strings i crave... i want some order in my music but if renameing is the only way i will be back to winamp then this program aint worth it... playlist_tree is the best thing about foobar2000, i hope that someone knows how... there will be more people using foobar2000 if it will be fixed for sure... most people i know will start using it then....
If all you want is this output:
Album|Number Artist - Title
(being Number the number of your file)
but your files are named in so many different ways like
you can write a query like this:
%album%|$left(%_filename%,3) %artist% - %title%
(check the syntax of the $left function in the Titleformatting help, I can't check it now)
You need to have your files tagged correctly though, otherwise no string in the world would ever work.
