Trying to find an option to only find songs with all matching Tags

[Benjamin_Funer (Benjamin Füner)]

is it possible to only filter for songs which match all selected Tags?

[xxx (Banned - toxicity)]

From the album page, click on the Tag icon and select all that you want from the list of tags.

[xxx (Banned - toxicity)]

Nope, that won’t work. It gives a list of all albums matching all the tags, not albums that have combined tags.

Dunno.

Go to My Library > Tracks, and on the left, next to Focus and , select the tag icon.

Edit: not available on small screen devices.

Yeah, that’s what I thought also (from the album screen). That doesn’t do it.

If one selects multiple tags then a list is returned with all albums (tracks) that have any of the selected tags.

The OP wants a list of only those albums (tracks) that contain all the selected tags.

Are you referring to Roon Tags or FLAC Tags embedded in your files it’s not clear

They are very different and most replies here are assuming Roon Tags I think

Simply there is no searching facility if you are looking at FLAC/MP3 embedded tags

Wouldn’t the hole is Roon’s Boolean logic still be the same?

Feature suggestion:

Allow tags to be AND-ed together, similar to Focus, instead of just OR-ed

When selecting tags to narrow-down My Library content, the tags are combined with a logical OR: for example, selecting the two tags “instrumental” and “classical” shows content (such as albums) that is EITHER instrumental OR classical. So it shows symphonies but also operas and techno. When selecting tags, I would also like the option to select that the tags are to be combined with a logical AND. In the above example, only content that is BOTH instrumental AND classical would be shown. So it wo…

Yes but that search doesn’t really exist , does it ?

[Benjamin_Funer (Benjamin Füner)]

Yes that is exactly what I meant. Unfortunately there seems to be no solution to this problem other then the developers implementing this simple feature.

#feedback:feature-suggestions with only three votes are not going to get much attention from Roon.

[Suedkiez (Just a fellow user like you)]

Unfortunately. Full Boolean logic for Focus and tags would make it so much better

[image] The above feature is something that’s really missing. This is quite unfortunate as it is useful for common searches. In fact, it is a basic search tool available in most players like JRiver, iTunes, etc. They achieved that quite simply : the column, or panes, view. For instance, the following search isn’t feasible with Roon: Classical → Concerto → Violin Which could be translated to : Classical ∩ Concerto ∩ Violin Roon is a wonderful piece of software which would undoubtedly bene…

Yes, this is a better feature suggestion to vote for.

One could go wild with the feature asks for this.

How about all albums that are jazz and saxophone but not those by Kenny G.?

(jazz AND saxophone) XOR Kenny G.

[xxx (Banned - toxicity)]

But wait, I have more.

How about all albums that are jazz and saxophone but not those by Kenny G. or anything by Nina Simone?

((jazz AND saxophone) XOR Kenny G) OR Nina Simone.

What I miss about coding.

I’ve wanted this feature for the last 2 years.
