These discussion always go off on a tangent, making things seem much more complicated than they really are. It's little wonder that developers have thrown up their hands in the past. > It is also equally clear to me that a separate home > comp view is > called for, b/c comps can have an album artist tag, and b/c this would > simplify things under the hood with the db as described by Phil.

No reason, but traditionally there seems to be huge resistance to adding main menu items. I just don't think there's a big call for a Browse Compilations. If you tag a compilation with an album artist, you would expect to find that album under that artist. Why are compilations such a special case that you need to have a direct link to all of them in your library? They typically have nothing in common apart from being comprised of a mix of artists. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101264 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
