>Just out of curiosity, how do you deal with extra performances like for >instance Christmas songs? > Artists->[artist-name]->Play All Songs should always play all songs. I don't often want to play all songs from a single artist, but when I do, that is what I do, because how else would you do it?
If it happened to start playing a song that I didn't want to hear, I'd skip to the next song in Now Playing. If it was one of a bunch of songs, eg some xmas songs, I'd use the CustomSkip plugin to automatically skip over songs with genre=Christmas. >The way I had worked this around was to use the albumartist tag >"Various Artists - Christmas" for all Christmas song albums. Now that >the behaviour is changed I am getting all christmas songs as well in >the mix! > I don't see how that helps. If you have one christmas song on an album, where the other songs are not christmas songs, how would you tag that? What if it isn't a various artists album? eg. an album of Louis Armstrong songs, but one guest performer on one track, duetting on a christmas song. It's not an album by "Various Artists - Christmas", it should be an album by Louis Armstrong. If you play all songs, it would play the christmas song. >Genres does not seem to be useful either as many artists have different >genres so if I want to see all the genres for an artist but not >Christmas does not seem to be an easy way for doing that. Use Custom Browse to define your own ways of browsing your music library, or use CustomScan to not care about the extras and skip them if it encounters something you don't want to play.
