> can anyone help me to figure out how to filter albums with the less than 2 tracks. i have several albums with only 1 or 2 tracks and i would like to be filtered from my entire album collection

Note: Mp3tag only takes care of individual files.  
Only if a tagged file knows how many tracks are stored into it's folder, ...  
then the filter can be used to detect files within folders, ...  
where the total number of files is less than 2 resp. is equal to 1.

There is procedure, which can help to set trackcount per folder, ...  
[Tracknummern in Aktionen](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/16480/4)

Afterwards you can apply the Mp3tag filter ...  
%TRACK% IS "1" AND %TOTALTRACKS% IS "1"
