Syntax for filter folders has changed in V8.
Please read the manual to get a good understanding of the new sytax.
Also now a Filter folder can be applied on a "Folder" instead of the entire database (7v way). So it's way too more powerfull now

I have nearly the same issues with Filter folder. Before VDJ 8 "filepath contains "I:\Eigene Musik\Dance" worked. Now i have to use "filepath starts with..." to get it working. The command contains seems not to work anymore.
Moreover, I read the guide, but the guide doesn't tell me why the syntax described top doesn't work anymore.

filepath contains should still work, are you getting a SYNTAX error - or is the folder not displaying any results.

Thank you for your responding! No I don't have any syntax error, but I used contains in VDJ 7 and I got some tracks displayed in the folder. If I use contains (instead of starts with) now, I don't have any tracks.

I can confirm that "contains" works, because I have a lot of filter folders that use "contains" and the results display fine.
However I'm using it to look for genres and/or years, not filepaths.
[EDIT] I've just done a quick test for filepaths. It seems to be the drive letters that are stopping it working.
i.e. filepath contains sausage will work, whereas filepath contains c:\sausage doesn't.
In your case, using filepath contains Eigene would work.

Lol...yeah you are totally right. However, that's a strange thing, but thank you for solving my issue.

Set the drive separately from path.. Usually you only want to use path (since drive letters can change.. e.g external drives etc..)
But you can of course filter for a specific drive also ..
Do it like this : Drive is C and file path starts with "house music"
@asthedj
As the error message says you dont have a complete syntax yet, days since what
Example of use : days since first seen < 30
I made a little project with a complete stock of different common asked for filters here, super easy to set up and use :

Both for looking at examples and for real use ;)
