Thanks a lot for sharing this. It just started using the multi library plugin and was confused that whenever I selected a song from an album via the menu in a specific library, it played all songs in the album even though the player setting was "Play only selected song". So the first thing I had to figure out was that when I was browsing specific libraries, I was actually using a custom browse menu. So it dawned on me that custom browse may not be respecting the per player setting. But how to change it. It did not occur to me that this would be a per menu-item setting so I was glad to eventually find this thread which brought me on the right track.
But does it make sense to have "Play only selected song" vs "Play other songs in album of directory" as a per menu option rather than as a universal option? Although it is feasible, I found it rather labourious having to go into each individual menu and changing the setting. I suppose that there is some technical limitation why the Custom Browse plugin doesn't simply respect the generic setting for each player. But I think the current solution is not good. I *would like to suggest* to @erland (no way to do mentions in this forum?) to add this option to the Custom Browse Settings menu. Another thing I would like to mention is the following *inconsistent behaviour* of the Custom Browse plugin: Once I have manually disabled the "Play all songs in selected album" in the first level custom browse menus, this setting was automatically applied to the corresponding menus of one of my three libraries but not to the other two. I think it should be either be applied to all library menus (preferable) or to none at all. Finally, there also seem to be some* inconsistencies* in how albums are displayed across the different menus. For example, in my classical music library, in the album menu, the album artist is displayed even though the setting "show artist with album" is off but in the New Albums menu, the artist is not displayed but instead the year is (and I have no idea how I might turn that off) and when I activate "show artist with album, the artist is displayed in a smaller font on the left, i.e. in a different way than in the Albums menu. *Server*: LMS 7.7.5 on a ReadyNAS Ultra 2 *Players*: Radio, Touch, Duet (Receiver & Controller), Boom *Remote control apps*: iPeng (iOS), SqueezePad (iOS), Squeezecontroller (Android) *Important plugins*: Trackstat, Spicefly Sugarcube, Lazy Search Music, Switch Player, SmartMix, Custom Browse, Spotify (Logitech and Triode), Multi Library ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chaug's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47641 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61923 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
