Searching my library is still a bit problematic -- but these problems were being fixed in earlier builds of 7.9. I installed 1403162826 to see where things stand.
I have in -Settings > My Music-: - "Use single, configurable list of artists" selected - All three options in "Composer, Band and Orchestra in Artists" are unchecked Library contains 2505 albums with 45097 songs by 637 artists Even though Composer is -not- selected in "Composer, Band and Orchestra in Artists", searching my library still returns composers as Artists. Click on these composer "artist" links returns "Empty". If I select the Composer box in "Composer, Band and Orchestra in Artists": Library contains 2505 albums with 45097 songs by *6615* artists (I have Composer tags for all my music) Clicking a composer link from searching provides the expected values (i.e., songs they composed) So...search is only partially respecting the "Composer, Band and Orchestra in Artists" choices. When Composer is not selected, it still provides links to Composers in the results, but returns no songs if one is clicked upon. If Composer is not selected in "Composer, Band and Orchestra in Artists" then I don't think the composer matches should appear at all. This has been a long-standing problem for me with LMS. However, in a few earlier builds of 7.9 (1402991900 and the one prior IIRC), only "real" Artists appeared in the search results -- no Composers. Those builds, however, didn't return track-only artists (i.e., from Various Artists albums) in the search -- only values from my 637 (album) artists, but I prefer that problem compared to the proliferation of composers in my search results. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bwaldron's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1073 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101516 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
