A new version (1.20) of the Custom Scan plugin is now available, the new functionallity and changes are: - Added option to multiple custom tags menus so the custom tags on an upper level in the menu hierarchy is limited to the tracks that also have the custom tags specified for the lower levels in the menu hierarchy - Added an option to the LastFM scanning module to retrieve and store artist images from LastFM, these images can be used with the new "Artist image" header item in Custom Browse 1.23. By default no images are retrieved. - Added skip filters for Custom Skip plugin "Custom tag" and "Not Custom tag" - Made the "Random songs from similar artist" dynamic playlist available by default if the LastFM scanning module has been used. - Corrected "Mixed Tag" scanning module so it clear old data when scanning, in the previous release it added more data for each scanning. The result was poor performance after a few rescans. - Improved performance of "Clear" operations on "Custom Tag" and Mixed Tag" scanning modules - Made "Tags" (Dynamic Tag) menu available by default if the Mixed Tag scanning module has been used - Changed "LastFM Similar Artists" menu so hitting play on top level plays 20 songs from similar artists while browsing down into artists works as the normal browse menus and plays all songs for the selected artist/album. - Added "Browse tags by selected" mixer. It is available if the Mixed Tag scanning module has been used and is a "Dynamic Tag" menu that starts with the selected artist. - Added new menu template "Genres/Sub genres with custom tags" - Corrected some small problems
NOTE1 If you have used the Mixed Tag scanning module in previous releases I suggest that you perform a scan with the "Mixed Tag" module. NOTE2 If you previously had version 1.18 or earlier installed this version creates a number of indexes at startup to get decent performance of the Dynamic Tag menu template. This may take a few minutes if you have used the Custom Scan plugin before. The new version is available at my 'download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) as usual. The current wish/todo list for new features in comming CustomScan releases can be found here: http://erland.homeip.net/issuetracking/do/guest/home?application=slimserver-customscan If anyone have more feature requests or if I have missed some feature you already have requested which hasn't been implemented, please let me know. Also please note that it is a wish list and not a release plan, so some features on this list may never be implemented. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and RandomPlayList plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29156 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
