I have a selection of custom browse menus, all based originally on Erland's classical music suggestions. When I access these via the Touch (not the web interface) I see different behaviour patterns, and I am unsure why. Normally I use a laptop as my controller, but on occasions I use the Touch via its remote control.
On some menus, pressing a letter on the remote skips to artists / conductors / composers starting with that letter. On others, it doesn't. On some menus, pressing + at some points (I'm not 100% clear on which ones and where) gives me the option of adding that track, or set of tracks, or album, to the playlist. On others it appears to show nothing when at any level other than track. I apologise that this is a bit vague. I haven't yet ascertained a pattern to the behaviour. Is there some fundamental difference between Touch menus based on standard tags, mixed tags, or custom tags, that I haven't understood? The three attached xml files (in one zip since the forum upload seems to fail with xml files) show "Works by Composer", "Works by WorkArtist" (the prime Artist for a Work consisting of one or many tracks but not necessarily a whole Album), and "Albums by Composer". The first does not support selection by single letter, the second does. Neither of the 1st two shows anything when I press + on the remote until I am at a single track level. The third menu allows use of a letter on the remote to find composer, and when at Album level supports + on the remote to add the whole album to the playlist. What am I missing? +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Browse Config.zip | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=12897| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- PasTim Server on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, 2 CPU, 2GHz, 4GB, FLAC files.
