Hi Emmanuel, You may want to try creating an automatic playlist and see if that helps you out. In RB, got to Music -> Playlist -> New Automatic Playlist. A window should appear... in the first drop down box you can select "Path" and the next should be "contains" and you can type in a partial path in the text box. Name it and save it.
