Just create a filter folder with: "top 50 nbplay"
which has the same filter/ results than the "Most played" folder in V7

Right click the field headings, artist bpm key etc and you'll get a set of options to pick the field headings you want, you want to include 'playcount'

And after that, sort your browser list by play count by clicking on the play count column header.

It was never a filter folder and shouldnt have to set one up.all my folders are seperate the way i like them so top played ect filters is not what im after.
in 7 when open up vdj at gig all fokders have most played automatically on top inside folder.
then after played would go to end of said folder after leaving that folder.
this to me was done within vdj without the use of filters ect

I'm confused.
Surely what's at the top of the list depends on the column(s) you're sorting by...
For instance if you have artists listed alphabetically, then A will be at the top - not the most played tracks.
Plus, if you sort by artist then the sort is global i.e. it affects the results in all folders.

As Staffy is saying, for some reason V7 put the most popular tracks at the top as a default when you selected a folder. V8 doesn't do this. I think that's what he wants to happen.

The 'smart' order from v7 is still available by sorting by the icon column.
It was not based on playcount though, but a combination of last played, not played in this session and closeness in bpm and key to the currently playing song.

There were a lot of changes to the way the browser sorts in V8.
as Adion said above, if you click where the arrow is it will enable smart order for each folder. It's still there in V8 but not obvious to find.

Might be a good idea to mention that in the manual, and (as Keith says) make it more obvious on the browser.
I didn't know it existed, and I'm a long term user! No other "multi star" forum members in this thread appear to know about it either - no one mentioned it....
Maybe useful to have smart_sort as a command too, so people could assign it to a button.

The manual needs a good overhaul anyway. So many things not mentioned in it and not updated since the release of V8.
