I guess I was somewhat unfamiliar with Advanced Search. I took a look at Advanced Search in 7.8 and 7.7, which answered a couple of my questions.
(BTW, it's unbelievably slow in earlier versions of LMS when the result set is large. I see the server's CPU being pegged and eventually it times out in the browser. Meanwhile, LMS 7.9 takes less than a second to run the same search.) JJZolx wrote: > - I'm only seeing a single page of results, ordered alphabetically, with > no pagebar or 'more' links.

This appears to be how it's always worked, which raises some questions. What I would envision the new functionality to be used for is generating very large playlists. For example all Rock from the 1980s, or all Jazz from before 1940, or all Metal with a rating of at least 4. Without access to everything returned, I don't see how the search results would be very useful. > - When you've done a search, and click 'Advanced Search' in the > breadcrumb navigation, why are the search results from the prior search > shown below the form? Is there a use for this? Again, this is apparently how it's always worked. I don't quite understand why, but it's not new. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101727 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
