[slim] Ignore files and folders

Re: [slim] Compilations - appearance in the LMS interface
see my sig links. i put one CD per folder only. i use AA tags on everything. i put a comp=1 tag on only those things i want identified as a comp. no comp=0 tags. i change the default value in settings of denoting comps as "Various Artists" to "-Various Artists-" bc of a nasty bug in LMS where any string conflict with the value of that setting in any AA or A tag value (and possibly others) results in that entry being hidden by LMS (in at least some parts of the UI) with comps and LMS, its important to remember its a two part process... the first being in how LMS identifies comps, the second being in how it then handles them once identified. using: win10 64 + lms 8 & duet & ipads w/the logitech app, and ipeng on an ipod http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/various_artists_logic & http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/compilations BJW's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58242 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114865 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[slim] PiCorePlayer issues
Hello I have Vortexbox running on it's own server. I have built 2 Raspberry Pi Picoreplayers with 7" touchscreens. Both work very well except I can't get the players to play the whole album. It will play the first song then stop. I have gone through the menus and setting but can't find anything that will help. I have long press the album and pressed play but it will only play the first song then stop. If I go to LMS on my Windows and select the album it will play the whole thing. Any help would be appreciated. barnyruble's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29072 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114869 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
