Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Standard Search results
A FTS for beet sym 5 returns the 4 different versions at the top of the Albums results, but a search for beet sym 1 gets only one version although there are 5 in the library. Is there some kind of negative weighting for search results with 1 in them ? Ok, here's some of my findings: - hits on the most important values (title) need a higher weight. Das Leid von der Erde comes with a massive amount of lyrics and descriptions. The search term 1 alone has 1200 hits in there. A weight of 100 on title matches can't compensate for this... - even with a much higher weight you would get more other symphonies than no. 1, because you eg. have albums like Symphony No. 9 - Orchestra of the 18th Century, which would result in the same number of hits in the title, thanks to the 18th century. One suggestion for you would be to use no 1 (in quotes) in the search term. This would put the five versions of Beethoven's Symphony No. 1 in the top 6 results. I'll need to think about how to further improve weighing of the results to get better matches. Thanks for you file. This gives me another great playground to work with. -- Michael ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Standard Search results
Michael, any thoughts on how (or if) you might be able to provide both the old, simple substring searching and still make FTS available to users? As Phil and myself discussed, the simple search is still the preferred way to get to something without a lot of extraneous search results. But FTS may still be handy for finding more obscure things, such as finding a note in a comment, or words from lyrics.

A search for - beet sym no. - lists all the symphonies. moz pi 21 - goes straight there! A camel is a racehorse designed by a committee.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] 7.9 Problems/Bugs
Hi Michael, Ever since I've upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04, I've been using the nightly branch of LMS. Before I've always used the logitech versions, but apparantly that's not working on 14.04 :-( In the current version (and also all nightlies before), I'm experiencing a problem, when I try to see the context menu of an item. This could be a song, artist, album, whatever. Whenever I click on the title in the webinterface, or on the + sign on my android squeezecontroller or on the duet controller, the cpu load rises to 100%, and the only way to get LMS going again is rebooting the service. I have no clue where to start looking for errors, could you help me solving this problem?

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Standard Search results
Michael, any thoughts on how (or if) you might be able to provide both the old, simple substring searching and still make FTS available to users? Thoughts, yes. I'll have to verify this, though. But I think if you start your search by entering a quote, then the resulting query should get very close to the simple substring search. Could you please test this? As Phil and myself discussed, the simple search is still the preferred way to get to something without a lot of extraneous search results. Phil's comments were based on a buggy version of the search. Unfortunately he didn't verify his search after I fixed the sorting. I'm still convinced that if the weighting of the results is done correctly, then the results of the fts should be as good as the simple text search. The additional results added to the tail shouldn't hurt. Who cares about the millions of hits google shows up for any random search? Most users will check the first one or two pages and ignore the long tail. But FTS may still be handy for finding more obscure things, such as finding a note in a comment, or words from lyrics. Doesn't the Advanced Search cover the obscure use case? -- Michael ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
