i.e. you could add a custom tag MULTICHANNEL=1 to multi-channel songs, and where you have duplicate songs in stereo format, add MULTICHANNEL=0. For all other normal albums, don't add the custom tag. Then you could define the stereo library to contain all music EXCEPT where tag MULTICHANNEL=1, and the multichannel library to contain all music EXCEPT where MULTICHANNEL=0. Not sure if there is an easy way to implement a library to choose based on a tag. You can do it by writing custom SQL, and I think there's perhaps a way to use a custom skip filter. I do a similar thing, but by using a include directory path for multi-channel music. i.e. I store multi-channel music in a different path to my normal music, and then define a Surround Sound library that only includes music from that path. You could have 3 folders: 1. multi-channel only. 2. stereo version of albums in (1). 3. All other music. And then make two libraries: (1)+(3) and (2)+(3). You could alternatively do a similar thing using special genre tags (eg. GENRE=Surround Sound or GENRE=Stereo).
