>That's roughly what I'd like to see as well. The "group compilation >albums" pref would be unnecessary and could go away completely, as the >"Album Artists" view is what results from grouping them and the >"Artists" view is the result of not 'grouping' them. > I agree that would be nice to provide Browse Artists and Browse All Artists. However, it doesn't just affect Browse Artists. It also affect other browse hierarchies that can display a list of artists.
eg. Browse Genres > Rock, would then show a list of artists that have albums in the Rock genre. So, should that show only Album Artists or All Artists? The "group compilation albums" pref I assume works across the board for anywhere where a list of artists is displayed. I don't think it's sensible to try to modify existing SBS behaviours through a third-party app, but adding additional browse menus is fine. This has already been done with Custom Browse. >Implementation wise, I still say that at scan time is when all albums >should be assigned album artists. That's what current happens. The setting "Group Compilation Albums" has the information it needs already in the DB, which was set up at scan time. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
