Hi
I have two questions concerning paths:
1. I have the following paths specification in my config file:
Just to be sure - they are evaluated from top to bottom, and it is the first one which matches wins - correct?
1. I have the $missing in there - is it possible, to put all albums, which have at least one missing track, into one folder? Something like
In the same context: can I query all albums which have at least one missing track?
Thanks,
Rainer

Found the answer to the second question concerning list:
```
beet list -af '$missing $album' missing:1..99 | sort
```

Yes.

Remember that the “key” for a path is just a beets query, so any query you can use with `list` can also appear there. So `missing:1..` will do, for example.

That sounds perfect. So I could also do something like `missing:1.. genre:jazz`?
Cool.

Hm. I tried
```
genre:Jazz missing:1..: Jazz/00_missing_$missing/$albumartist/$album%aunique{} ($missing)/$disc.$track $title
genre:Jazz: Jazz/$albumartist/$album%aunique{} ($missing)/$disc.$track $title
```
but the first one got not triggered, although I have two albums there:
```
16:13 $ beet list -af '$missing $album' missing+ genre:jazz missing:1..
7 Bar Jazz
12 Toccata: Play Bach
```

That’s always somewhat tricky to debug, but you’re on the right track here. You might try fiddling around with the query and the template to see what you can get to trigger—a little exploration would likely be fruitful!
