Custom search query syntax Media Library

Where can I find details and examples of the syntax for Custom search in ML?

Right click on Local Media > Add Start View... and hit the Advanced Mode button.

Ah! Excellent! That query builder works great. Thanks.

At the risk of being picky is there a way to delete all the searches from the Local Media menu all at once?
I can do a one-off search by copy and pasting the query to the search bar - not forgetting to put a ? before it. That way the search is not added to the Local Media menu at all.

Local Media views have to be deleted one at a time in Winamp, but you can do the searches from the search bar with the question mark in front. If you have TONS you can hunt down and edit gen_ml.ini

OK, well you got me hooked - I can see all my searches in gen_ml.ini, even the ones I deleted from ML, but what can I do with it?

Duh! - ah OK I see what you mean - I can delete the searches in ml_gen.ini
Thanks
