Smart Playlist Rules Missing Date/Year-Based Filtering Options
A media player's smart playlist feature only supports filtering by album, artist, title, and file path — omitting metadata fields like release year or decade. Users who want to build time-based playlists (e.g., songs from the 2020s) have no way to do so within the existing rule system. This reflects a broader gap in the track rule fields exposed to users, limiting the usefulness of the smart playlist feature.

Slack search cannot filter by date or jump to specific keywords

Media players lack preferred audio language filter matching subtitle options
Media applications offer a "show only preferred language" filter for subtitles but provide no equivalent for audio tracks, forcing users to scroll through long lists of audio options to find their preferred language. This inconsistency in the UX creates unnecessary friction, especially for multilingual users. The feature gap is a straightforward parity issue with the existing subtitle preference system.
