I disagree with so much that you have written that I won't respond bit by bit. I fail to understand half of it.
Music is NOT about recordings, to me, it about performances, So a Concerto has a WORKARTIST - it must have, for me. So does a Symphony (the same as CONDUCTOR), and so on. It/they is the key ARTIST on all tracks of the performance. An extract of a WORK is part of WORK, so in the naming hierarchy, it's not a random extract, it's part of a WORK. It's music, is it not? WORK composed by people. Not 'extracts' of a recording. If I have 50 performances of the same aria they all come up in a WORK/MOVEMENT query. Or try using Erlands Dynamic Tag menu. What's the issue? If there is an opera with an aria of the same name (or indeed a Mass - much more likely), how do I find the different pieces of music with the same name? I use WORK and MOVEMENT. . And please stop saying yours is so much better ' less rocky' indeed. I might think the same of yours solution but I don't say so. I have tried to stay polite. I wish you would respect other people's views and stop slagging them off. I am quite sure my plot will works with larger libraries. I can't see why it would not, provided performances are key, not recordings. Because the world is as it is, not as we might like it, all my music must be easily playable on systems that are not as flexible as LMS. That's life. If/when LMS collapses, I have several other ways of still playing my music reasonably easily, just not as good. A necessary precaution for me. What is JEFF? LMS 8.1 on PC, Xubuntu 20.04, FLACs 16->24 bit, 44.1->192kbps. 2 Touches & EDO. LMS plugin UPnP/DLNA Bridge to MF M1 CLiC (A308CR amp & ESLs) & Marantz CR603 UPnP renderers. Also Minimserver & Upplay to same & to upmpdcli/mpd PC renderers. Squeezelite to Meridian USB Explorer DAC to PC speakers/headphones. Wireless Xubuntu 20.04 laptop firefox/upplay or Android mobile with Squeeze-Ctrl/BubbleUPnP controls LMS/Minimserver. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106488 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
