Hello - I'm moving a conversation that started in another thread to
here, since it's more appropriate. Here's the original discussion:

https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?96757-Annouce-Squeeze-Control-a-squeezebox-remote-app-is-now-available-for-Android&p=956860&viewfull=1#post956860

(posts 837 - 841)

The short of it is that there is an inconsistency in the behavior
between accessing LMS from the browser interface vs. controllers (like
Squeeze Control in my case). It came up because I was looking to
specifically play holiday music by artists (where I've tagged their
specific holiday albums with a tag "holiday") and was searching by
genre. 

If I attempt to play holiday music via the web server vs. Squeeze
Control I see different behavior. The web is correct, and according to
wt0 and slartibartfast the behavior needs to be corrected in LMS. (I'm a
bit out of my depth here). Anyway, here's the behavior:

Via the browser (localhost:9000): if I select My Music -> Genres ->
Holiday (as an example) -> and then select the triangle play button that
is in the same row as a specific artist it will play JUST the holiday
albums by that artist.

Via squeeze control: if I select My Music -> Genres -> Holiday (or
whatever) -> scroll to specific artist, press and hold the circle-plus
button and select play, it will queue ALL albums by that artist, not
just the holiday albums. (Same with Add To End and Play Next, both add
all albums not just the specific genre'd albums). 

slartibartfast confirmed the behavior is correct in Material Skin but
not in Orange Squeeze as additional data points showing the
inconsistency.

Thanks for the help!
