Question around LeastRecentlyPlayed
Posted: 11 Jul 2026 19:55
Hi Bernd,
I have a media library of around 5000 tracks.
For my Christmas tracks, I use a ruleset that they can only be played in December, for instance. Those are around 250-ish tracks.
Now, as you can imagine, it was quite some time since these tracks have been played. I believe, that this causes "LeastRecentlyPlayed" to misbehave a little bit.
Is there any advice/guidance you can give me here? For example, I think it would help perhaps if the filtering feature allows me to filter for tracks that don't got certain rulesets.
