For the sake of efficiency, I'll skip over your insulting rant and get to two points I believe everybody here agrees: - Artist View (Home->Artists): when ALBUMARTIST tag is present in file, then regardless of whether the album is compilation or not, it should not go into Various Artist area. It should be listed as <ALBUM> by <ALBUMARTIST> and be listed under ALBUMARTISTS in artist list (Home->Artists->ALBUMARTIST). Right now compilation albums, even though they are displayed as <ALBUM> by <ALBUMARTIST>, are grouped under Home->Artists->Various Artists. - Album View (Home->Albims): When album is listed like <ALBUM> by <SOMETHING>, regardless of what is that SOMETHING is, sorting should follow the general sorting rule of the list. If it is just by <Album>, then everything is OK, if it is by <Artist, Album>, than <SOMETHING> should be treated as artist and sort should effectively become <Something, Album>. Right now, compilations with albumartist are listed as <ALBUM>by<ALBUMARTIST> but sorted (ina case of <Artist, Album> sort) among albums whose artist start with 'V' or are 'Various Artists'. I really hope these two chapters are right to the point. @kdf, I believe you are listening to these discussions through eMail and are under wrong impression that this is coming from the developers forum. Actually, this is coming form the General forum, and I find your assumptions about capabilities of the discussion participants rather inappropriate and beside the point since there's no requirement to be able to code in order to engage into discussion.

DVD performance will also increase substantially. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iAj2aPdQnk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvMNuuFSvN0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDRhRv4q_SI http://youtube.com/watch?v=nlrpe8Ig5m8 http://youtube.com/watch?v=dC9tGlwPln8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slimkid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8881 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47297 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
