When I am putting together my Smart Playlists, I have noticed that my video files all appear correctly but none of my .iso files will show. I have gone into the imported folder properties and added '.iso' as a video file type but still nothing. Is it set this way intentionally and is there anyway to get the .iso files to show up in the playlist?

If your smart playlist is using a rule something like:


"File path" "starts with" "D:\MyVideos\Movies"

then change the "starts with" operator to "contains" and that should then include your gapless multi-files (such as DVD ISO titles) into the smart playlist.

I've tried several different rules:

file path contains Dora
file name contains Dora
etc.

If I change the <Restrict this smart playlist to these types of file:> to All types of media files then they will show up, along with every other file I don't want. Incidentally, when I do get them in the playlist or from the original folder, I am unable to set any kind of metadata for the .iso files.

OK - understand now, smitbret. We'll reproduce this here and fix it for the next release - due next week.
