Version: 1.4.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6) Installed from: FreeBSD Ports Compiler: gcc version 3.4.6 [FreeBSD] 20060305 OS: FreeBSD Adding a "length" filter to the playlist filter does not produce expected behaviour. If I have a playlist with a selection of tracks, some between 3 and 10 mins long, and some an hour or two, trying to filter to 'length:<300' or 'length:<05:00' (the former generated by clicking the [...] button by the filter box, the latter suggested in #amarok on freenode) the playlist does not get filtered to only tracks less than five minutes. Instead, it contains a combination of (say) three minute tracks and 1- and 2-hour tracks. Here's the original playlist (in this case it's a Suggested Songs playlist, but this behaviour exists with a "regular" playlist too): http://sakaki.jamesoff.net/~james/amarok1.png Here's the result of filtering: http://sakaki.jamesoff.net/~james/amarok2.png The songs <1h but >5m have been filtered, but the >1h tracks remain! This is a vanilla install of Amarok from FreeBSD ports; I am using the default SQLite backend, a replaygain script, and moodbar.
I can confirm a similar behaviour: clicking on [...] and using the filter dialog gives an expression in seconds (e.g. length:<300), but this number is minutes, so it should be length:<5 The collection search however works with seconds. Amarok 1.4.6-1 from Debian testing, on Kubuntu 7.04 with SQLite 3.3.13 and some scripts (e.g. replaygain)
Confirmed in Amaork 1.4.9.1. Filtering does not work yet in Amarok 2.
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug for Amarok. Amarok 1.4 is now unmaintained and will no longer see any improvements. Because of this, and the massive amount of changes Amarok has undergone throughout the 2.x series of releases, we are closing bugs that no longer apply to the 2.x series due to changes in functionality, the underlying architecture, or a conflict for the vision of Amarok 2. We appreciate the time you took to provide feedback about Amarok 1.4 and will look forward to any feedback you may provided about Amarok 2. Thanks.
