Make the information available at the track level in both the web and remote UIs when browsing and when playing. So they need to be in the database as track artists. But exclude them when browsing artists. And, drumroll please....... make it an option. I'm sure that if the current behavior is changed then about 1/2 of SB owners will be screaming bloody murder.
I have a quite a few compilations in my collection which I've just begun ripping and cataloging (knowing that it would be a PITA to tag it all correctly) and the artist list is growing ridiculously large. When browsing artists, including those artists with just one or two tracks in all the thousands of tracks in the collection isn't very user friendly. There should be a way of tagging (or recognizing) an album as a compilation and then excluding those artists who are only on compilations. -- JJZolx Jim _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
