ahum, showing only x tracks is the reason to not display all tracks in one go...that's useless (and as you mentioned, would probably crash the stuff or would take a mega long time to load). But if they are listed alphabetically with X tracks per page, there is no issue - (you click on a character and it would load those tracks beginning with... etc) but in fact i don't care what's displayed when you press "tracks" - if I could do a search on that "track" folder, i'm fine with that. But that's not the case: when pressing the new track folder, it shows the list of albums or artists (depending on what you've set in additional browse modes). When doing a search for a trackname its displaying album/artist hits too...next to a tracks list. When you click on the track hitlist, you need to scroll through that list once more to find what you need. Sonos might have it easy, but it works. If you search for a trackname 'time', this track would show up first in the list. All other tracks with 'time' in their name would follow. In LMS, you get it all mixed up (so probably a setting somewhere?) Personally i didn't hit the 65K limit yet so - currently, we don't care about that one. (btw, creating multiple main folders to index is quickly done - indexing is very fast) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Toothless's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66038 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106118 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
