Sry, im using a bit more data there....

for u, this would be enough

$if(%play_date%,'Last Time Played: '%play_date%' @ '%play_time%)

Dont forget u still need the component "foo_playcount" to use that string, if im not wrong.

:shifty:

Thank you Krpano, this is better. I am now having trouble getting the Date displayed as I prefer. This is what I've got:

Last Time Played: 2101MM05 @ 221222

Whereas I would like to have Last Time Played: 21/01/2005 @ 22:12:22

I have foo_playcount. I've tried changing the Components>Play Count >Format, but it doesn't seem to help.

I should be grateful if you could help me please.

One of the solutions is to do like me....

foo_play.jpg

simply add the : or / or whatever there.

with one inconvenience...files u have already played will not take the effect, only new played files....because the data will be already stored....

one solution here is to use masstagger to clean the data stored in the file.

there is an alternative string u can add but for that you will need to check at hydrogenaudio.org ....i never bothered to do that way.

:rolleyes:

Edited from here:

Ok i searched a bit, maybe this is what are you looking for...

$if(%play_date%,' '$substr(%play_date%,3,4)
|$left(%play_date%,2)|$right(%play_date%,2)' @ '
$left(%play_time%,2):$substr(%play_time%,3,4),
'                 ')

The output looks like this at the end of my playlist:
04|13|04 @ 19:33

let me know if this works....i never tried this way.

that code line was found HERE !!!

Thanks you Krpano, with your help and patience I am getting there. Esp your helpful tip about "with one inconvenience...files u have already played will not take the effect, only new played files....because the data will be already stored...." I guess my changes were taking but not storing. I'll go and have a play now to see how I get on. I am rather slow at this lark. But, thank you for helping me :)

Do you have your Database enabled ?

from the playcount plugin creator:

"Here is a small plugin that will update the DB with a running playcount, along with the date and timestamp a track was last played. It currently only updates the DB (not the file)."

Maybe here u can find more advanced help..

You need the trackinfo panel, in the preferences for that panel you will find an area where you can paste that code.

    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      By +Warwagon · Posted

      They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.

      That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.
    • LibreOffice developer takes a dig at Euro-Office in new open letter

      By Ccl Ncc · Posted

      I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
