It seems, like you can´t configure the filter more precisely than on day, that´s the minimum. You can set a time in the filter, though, but this would be static, not dynamic. In other word, you can´t filter files newer than 3 hours without readjusting every time you use the filter.

First create a filter, Ctrl-F will bring up the search panel. In the "advanced" tab, select "new filter" from the drop down menu. Then you can click on the "+" an chose "date/time". You can change the other settings by clicking on them. Chose

Date - Equal - created - after -

& save the filter.

If your filter was called "example", and assuming it uses "Time Match Within 3 hours", a possible command is:

Select FILTER example FILTERFLAGS=hidenomatch

That's really what I need! One more thing: Is it possible to include the date into the command line? Something like:

Select FILTER example FILTERFLAGS=hideonmatch FILEDATE=05/05/09

Or any other way to achieve the result?

No, not at the moment. There's no way to define advanced search filters via the command line right now.
