Hi... I recently noticed that i can't use complex fcs because my mp3 don't have (not all) tracknumber tagz or they are not correct. I would like to know if is possible to create a function to put a line under the artist album e lenght only if the next song in the song lists have a different album...

example:

John Doe - First - My song
John Doe - First - My second song
John Doe - Second - My first song

in a few words, it checks "the next song album tag" to see if it is different from itself

sorry for the english!!! thank you!

No, this is not possible unless you tag the songs to indicate which song is the last song in an album.

Also, Tagz doesn't let you underline text.

i don't want to underline the text but change the cells line color...

is possible to assign different line colors for different albums or i need the tracknumber tagz filled correctly?

If the %album% tag is tag correctly or you use the parent folder then you can use function $crc32(%album%) to generate color base on the album string tag.

Here's the code I use in album column you can modify it to use the parent directory by using %directory% in place of %album%:

Kaleth you really should update the track number tags on your files if you want to accomplish album separated sorting in your playlist. Is this information stored anywhere? Maybe in the filenames themselves? There are ways to import this information into your tags so you do not have to update all your songs manually. Once you have updated your tracknumbers instead of trying to figure out if the next track is the same album to draw a line on the bottom, you can simply draw a line on the top if a track is number 1. Assuming your playlist is sorted properly this should accomplish the same effect.

My FCS here gives an example of coloring based on album name, detecting first and last tracks of an album, and alternating line colors based on tracknumber -or- playlist number depending on whether the playlist is album-mode or track-mode.

It relies that each album has a TOTALTRACKS tag.
