I really need an advanced search facility...
for example the ability to fill in several fields, on the search their could be 3 fields and 3 boxes to enter the information,
Track/artist (files containing the words):
BPM parameters (min-max): e.g 122-125
Comments:
I really need this feature, especially as my music folders are growing, this would really help!..
so you can search either for a particular track, a certain bpm/bpm range, or just the comment field (which i use for genre description).
Of course you could fill in all 3 fields and get a combination of results, or just 1 or 2 fields...
So you could search your entire libary for songs with bpm, comments and year (if included in filename) in common.
Hope I make sense.

sorry ....but why not open the database and order the list by bpm?

djjb: some persons have databases with more than 20,000 songs... BPM (and advanced) search would be much more useful and efficient than scrolling through 20,000+ songs...

its even more than that.
say your in the middle of a set at 119 bpm and at a loss for what to mix into next. You know your good for + or - 8%
typing in the 119 - 126 will show you good choices of what song to mix into next. Maybe even a song you haven't played in awhile or forgot about. A good new feature in my book.

79,858 songs?????? wow!!! damn....
how about setting up an FTP for downloads? ;) lol
I have about 15-20.000.. and are already thinking about deleting quite a few of them, as its really to many songs.... making it harder to find the good ones.. ;)
But hey... wouldn't mind to having more in a "backup folder" for rare requests, odd gigs etc ;) maybe I'll get close to the 80.000 you got.... in say...eh... 2-3 years... lol

Thats what the little number says over by my search bar :)
I do just about any event under the sun grated a lot of my hard house isn't going to be used at weddings and you know you gotta have the hip hop. I also have tv show themes etc samples drops on and on. I plan on breaking 100,000 again this year, I was up over 128 at one time but I had some duplicates and bad tracks cut me back down to size. I lost a lot due to pcdj encypted files maybe 3,000 or so. 90% of my collection is ripped to 320. and the xml side effects are bad so I more than likely have a tone more than I think I do.

support for external db like sql server or mysql would be nice, as i have my songs already in such and theres extra information fields not available in the mp3 id tags..
