Play Count in smart collection

[kbarnes70]

Hi,

I just noticed the Play Count field and thought it would be cool to make a smart collection of my most viewed DVDs (Play Count is greater than 3, for example). But when I go to the smart collection drop down list, Play Count isn't there. Any special reason?

Regards,

Keith

Hi Keith,

We will be working on adding more properties to the smart collection rules in the near future. Now that you mentioned it we will try to get the play count in there. The reason for it not being available is that it's not as straight forward as the other numbers because it's based on the number of related last seen history objects and not an attribute on it's own.

Hi Conor,

Do you guys ever take a day off! Thanks, as always, for the rapid response. I'll look forward to more capability in the smart collection rules - I love these things. I think I've used more or less all the current properties one way or another!

Kind regards,

Keith

'Kicking' is quite harsh. Can't you just 'throw'?

The latest beta has play count as a smart collection rule.
