Problems with Advanced Search on Year field
Last modified: 2009-07-31 10:14:56 UTC
I tried to find songs that had a year less than 1960. This took a long time to complete. I then realised that I had an awful lot of results (I wasn't expecting any). I believe that all tracks with no year tag were returned; no year must be represented by a small scalar value, so the query goes wrong.
Does your browse by year show any odd values?
Created attachment 2386 [details] exclude zero value years Should we just ignore albums with no year set? This will very likely cause complaints by folks who want to use the search to find badly tagged albums. Phil, do you have many zero value years in your collection?
Change 14509 - exclude 0 from "year < X" search, but allow as "year = 0" criteria
I can confirm that is working. The best UI solution would be to have "Is Blank", rather than for users to know that 0 means no year. Otherwise a link to some advanced search help page may be a good idea. "Is Blank" would be really useful on most search fields, as a way for user to find untagged music. Also useful would be a Between filter option (eg. "Year between n and m"). Should I transfer this to an enhancement request, as this bug report could be considered fixed?
