Hi,

I seem to be having an issue with Smart playlists. If I have not added the folders to another section of the library the rules will not work correctly.
Example.
'smart playlist 1' has a rule that the file has to have a folder starting with 'directory A'.
It will work for a while but at some point it will not add new files added.
The only resolution i have found for now it to create a regular playlist called Zfolders (chosen so its at the bottom) with the Folder of the files added.

Please let me know if im not making sense.

thanks,

Gumby

Smart playlists do not find new files that have been added into folders on your computer. Smart playlists only find files already in your Mezzmo library. So, until the file is added into your Mezzmo library, your smart playlist will not know about it.

You can add new files into your Mezzmo library in several ways. You can use Scan Drives/Folders for Files to find new files. Or, you can add a folder into Mezzmo that points to the folder on your harddisk & then run Maintain Library every so often to find your new files.
