MediaMonkey 3 used Filters, you'd select a Filter and the Library node would be filtered. MediaMonkey 4 changed that to Collections which are always available separately in the Media Tree.

I think all the Filter stuff became the Collections stuff, but a lot of my scripts have not been updated to reflect this.

Thanks for your reply. I've not had much time to work on this since posting my question, but I did notice the word Filter used a lot in an addon I looked at. Now I can't find the section of code, but I was left with the impression MM had some kind of filter function I might be able to tap into. Is there some way I could filter the files being currently viewed by the user? Or have I got it wrong?

As far as I'm aware, you can't currently hook into the search results node. It would be nice though!

Hi,

The last time I used Basic was on my TRS-80 and I was inspired to tinker when I saw the Genre Settings Addon. Now I would like to create something similar but to perform searches. I know how to create a panel for criteria selection, and how to create a working SQL query. But I've no idea how I can display the results (not in a way I would like).

What would be nice is if I could have the results of my script search displayed by MM in the "Search Results" Node as though it was performed by a standard MM search. I've had a look at the wiki and what I found was Search scripts. But that talks of Auto-Tagging and that's not what I want to do.

I'd rather not have to recreate a fully functioning Search Node if I can plug into the existing Search Node and let MM deal with the administration. So is there a way to hook into the MM Supplied Search Node? Or is there a way of getting MM to display the results without a Node? (I need to be able to use all the standard MM functionality on the records displayed).
