Tutorial: How to create a rolodex-style index using Smart playlists in Mezzmo

Like so: Artist Index -> P -> Pink Floyd -> Dark Side of the Moon -> <list of songs in album>

Been almost a year and a half since this was requested and more than a year since we had last heard that playlist functionality would be updated. Any progress on these fronts? As it is, using Smart Playlists for my music library is pointless since it won't categorize by artist and/or album.

Hi smitbret,

Once we get Mezzmo v3.0 released (with new subtitling and URL streaming features), then we will certainly be looking into these and other features.

Cool, I will watch for it, then.

Is there a coming feature that would allow us to strip off words at the beginning like "The" and 'A" so that so many movies don't end up under A and T because the titles begin with A or The ? Right now I have 236 videos that end up under T with over 80% because they start with The. I could go through and edit each title to remove The but I'd prefer to see a simpler approach.
