[Feedback Needed] Filtering your Playlists

Hey everyone, Spotify staff here.
We're happy to announce the ability to filter your playlists will return in the 1.0.6 update for Desktop. We're also giving two different versions of this feature to users--and we'd love to hear what you think. 
Ctrl+F/ Cmd+F
Some users will only see a filter bar when they select a track in the playlist and then click Ctrl+F (Windows) or Cmd+F (Mac). This bar will appear at the top of the playlist (please note it won't be stickied at the top when you scroll down). 
Static filter bar
The other users will see a filter bar that remains at the top of each playlist at all times (stickied at the top). No need to click Ctrl+F/ Cmd+F.
Our teams here at Spotify headquarters want to know what you think about the filtering option you're given. We're actively reading your feedback and comments here in the Community, and we want you to know we're listening. 
You can post your feedback here in this thread. If you have a different feature idea you can post it in our active Idea Exchange. 
When we have further updates about filtering 'Songs' and 'Artist Pages' we'll let you know. Thanks everyone!

"Ctrl+F/ Cmd+F: Some users will only see a filter bar when they select a track in the playlist and then click Ctrl+F (Windows) or Cmd+F (Mac). This bar will appear at the top of the playlist (please note it won't be stickied at the top when you scroll down)."Okay, why would I have to select a track when I've already selected the playlist I want to filter? This seems like a dumb limitation and will hinder user experience.  "Static filter bar: The other users will see a filter bar that remains at the top of each playlist at all times (stickied at the top). No need to click Ctrl+F/ Cmd+F."This sounds like a good solution to new and current users alike, but this will have to be activated via the Ctrl/Cmd-F combination, in addition to mouse/touch input (and accessible without having to select a track prior to using it).  The return of this function should be universal wherever there's a list of songs. Please don't do a half-assed version of this.

  • Can you save your playlists??

    I need to delete Itunes from my computer and reinstall.  Will I loose all my playlists or since they are on my ipod it will sync it when I reinstall.
    Do I need to save anything before deleting to simplify the new install??
    Also, Do you know the steps to make sure i sync with my ipod instead of it wiping everything off and starting over?
    Help... again

    reinstalling the iTunes app will not do anything to your playlists, media files, ratings, etc.
    click here for instructions.
    that said, it is imperative that you have a backup of your precious media files. bookmark this for future reference: The Complete Guide to Backing Up your iTunes Library.

  • Is there a a good cd software program out there like Jam 6.0.3 that will work on 10.7 or later OS? One that will crossfade individual songs on your playlists?

  • How do you delete duplicate tracks off your playlist?!

    How do you delete duplicate tracks off your playlist - everytime I connect my hard-drive it adds another of every single track - argh!!!!
    I remember there being a 'delete duplicate tracks' option on a much older version of itunes - is this still available and if not if you opt for the 'consolidate library' option will this automatically save to you computer as I have too much music for my laptops memory capacity! On top of that how can I stop this issue from contantly re-occuring everytime I connect my hard-drive?! Apologies if im being thick here.... xX*laura*Xx

    You are doing something wrong, iTunes doesn't add tracks to the library unless you ask it to, so there is a problem somewhere in your workflow which is creating the duplicates. For example, having iTunes set up to "Copy files to the iTunes Media folder when adding to library" and then repeatedly adding in a folder from an external drive would do it.
    Once you've worked out how to stop creating new duplicates you can look at the issue of deduping what you already have. See this recent post for some thoughts and a script that may prove useful.

  • Hi apple users, I am in need of your expertise. I have a mov file and mp4 file which I need converted to DVD. However IDVD quality is terrible and wondering if anyone can help!?

    Hi apple users, I am in need of your expertise. I have a mov file and mp4 file which I need converted to DVD. However IDVD quality is terrible and wondering if anyone can help!?
    I created project in iMovie then exported it to MP4 and also MOV file at highest definition possible + I added it to iDVD and had a number issues about encoding errors regarding the mp4 file. MOV worked but the quality was terrible.....
    MOV file is as follows:
    4.08GB
    Codecs: H.264, ACC
    Colour Profile: HD (1-1-1)
    Dimensions: 1920 x 1080
    Duration: 12:33
    Audio Channels: 2
    MP4 File is as follows:
    3.02GB
    Codecs: H.264, ACC
    Colour Profile: HD (1-1-1)
    Dimensions: 1280 x 720
    Duration: 12:33
    Audio Channels: 6
    I have a MacBook Pro using the Yosemite system upgrade.
    I have updated iDVD and iMovie.
    I even bought the iSkysoft app from the mac store and that was terrible too.
    PLEASE HELP i am getting desperate and about to launch this macbook into the air

    Version 10.10. 2

    First of all, Hunt--thanks for responding!
    "First, where are you playing the MPEG-2, that you see that jitter?"
    On both a MacBook Pro, an Acer laptop and my Mac Tower. I would love to think that it is a problem with the playback system, and that if I merely send the file off to the duplicator they won't have the same problem. Maybe that is the case...I don't know if I have a choice rather than sending it off to see. But it happens in the same spots, in the same way, on all three of the players so I'm a little reluctant to have faith.
    "Another thing that can cause jitter in an MPEG-2 is the Bit-Rate - higher the Bit-Rate, the better the quality, but the larger the file. For a DVD, one is limited by the total Bit-Rate (both Audio & Video), but with longer prodcutions, some users choose too low a Bit-Rate. If this is the issue, one would need to go back to the original Project and do a new Export/Share."
    Of course, but in the case there is no more 'original project.' It is gone like the wind, stolen along with his computer and backups.
    I think I am stuck using one of two files as my master: a DVD he burned where I only see the stutter/vibration/jitter once, or the mpeg2 file where I see it three times. Hopefully, the duplication house can rip if off of one of them and not see the jitter. I know that in audio, my personal filed, you can do a lot to enhance already existing sound--EQ, compression, tape saturation emulation software, etc. I guess I'm hoping there is some kind of analog to the video world that address jitter after a source has been printed--if indeed the source has been printed to be jittery.
    Thanks,
    Doug

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • Need of feedback ,base on your experience

    Hi everyone I need recommendations and feedback if possible.
    we are grouping 60 differents strores ,separated oracle databases(running the same application,same configuration) into one main server;using a Multi-schema,therefore we will be using one schema=one store=one user because each store has only one user=one trigramme.
    total of the dump of the different database=( 120Gb).
    has anyone experiences something like this?,are they major problem using a multi schema architecture?,knowing that top max users log on together might be around 100 ,how to find info or recommendation of servers that can managed such configuration?.. thansk again i'm fresh dba learner!!!!

    <<<Oracle version? Enterprise Edition? Standard Edition?
    My first preference would be for a single schema for all stores - using fine grained access control (FGAC) for creating a virtual private database for each store. I would use table partitioning in order to provide smaller meaningful data sets. I would also look at utilising local partition bitmap indexing.
    If you're using Standard Edition (SE), your choices are limited due to the reduced feature set. In that case a lot more detail is needed to determine how the features provided by SE can best be used to address the problem. Unlike the fairly common approach described above on EE, a comprehensive problem description would be needed instead to determine how best to solve it on SE. >>>
    Oracle version is ENTREPRISE...
    someone told me it would be easy to administer by creating a multi schema architecture...each store=one schema..also all database will be set for read only,no imput info will be added,it's besauce of federal regulation asking to store cust info for 3 years max..
    so i was thinking about creating user in the new database using the same trigramm they have already in their own database now..and when i will import the data,i will just match the info<<(imp fromuser=arnica touser=<actual user trigramm in the store>).. arnica is the name of the application running on oracle.. thanks again for the sharing//

  • Can 'track list' button show your playlist rather than album track list?

    Hi all
    My 3GS iPhone has my music on it in the form of whole albums which live in individual playlists on my Mac, but I also have playlist 'mixes' which I've created from various songs from multiple albums.
    When selecting to play a 'mixed' playlist on my iPhone I tap on it, tap the first song to start the music playing, but then if I tap the top right 'track list' button, instead of showing all the tracks in my created playlist it just shows the entire album tracks from where this particular song has come from. Visually I prefer the 'track list' screen but it seems I can't use it if I'm playing a 'mixed' playlist. Is there any way around this?
    Also, this is the same if I have a double CD album: once I hit the 'track list' button it shows just CD 1 (or 2 if I'm further down the play list of course), rather than all the tracks even though on they all live in one single playlist on my iTunes. I've even taken the starts of the track names off (some of them start with '1_01 Song Title' for example) when importing them into iTunes to see if that helps but it doesn't: the iPhone KNOWS how that track was originally supplied!
    Any help or clarification on this would be very helpful!
    Markos

    sadly, that kind of customization is only easily doable on a computer. the iPhone and it's core apps can not be changed by users. you can request the feature be put in, but unless there are a LOT of requests, you shouldn't get your hopes up as there are a lot of these kinds of requests, and by implementing it, how many other users would be angry and demand it be changed back? http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    if you are playing a song that you selected in a playlist, you should be able to hit the 'back' button in the top left to go back to the playlist and view your songs in the playlist.
    in regards to the 'cd 1 of 2' thing, you will need to change your song info to get this to show in the format you want. to see the song info, select a song and go to 'file -> get info'. that will show you all of the ID3 tag information, which you can edit to do whatever you want.

  • How do you get your playlist to play in order arranged? My shuffle is off.

    I created a playlist, when I play it on my computer, it plays it in the order as I arranged it. When I play it on my Ipod, it shuffles, nut my shuffle function is off. Any ideas?

    Are you sure it's actually shuffling the songs (i.e. the list of songs play in a different order each time through the list)?
    You may need to re-order this playlist in iTunes as resync it to your device.

  • How do you restore your playlists on iTunes after moving data to external hard drive and the playlists are deleted?

    after moving everything to an external hard drive, is there a way to restore the playlists you've already created if they're not there anymore?

    If you moved the iTunes folder to your external drive, you moved the iTunes library file - iTunes Library.itl, which is in that folder.
    You need to tell iTunes where it is, start iTunes with the shift key held down and iTunes should ask you to choose a library.
