Thanks. I didn't spot the right-click option, but it is very neat. I'm
not completely convinced about the panels approach - it is easy to use,
but does take up much more space. The nice thing about the tree approach
is that it leaves plenty of space to display all the album information
and associated links. What is needed is just a slightly more intuitive
way of describing the required hierarchy. I'll give it a bit of thought.
Also, I think I have found the reason for the problem I had described:
it seems to be to do with whether Muso considers the album to be a "full
album". In other words, albums that Muso does not consider to be "full"
do not appear in the hierarchy, regardless of whether or not "Full
Albums" is checked. By reducing the definition of full albums to, say 1
track and 10 mins, this problem goes away completely - i.e. all artwork
appears and the albums appear in the hierarchy. A lot of classical music
fans use "album" for each opus in order for players such as iTunes and
Squeezebox to display the information when playing; this can make for
quite short "albums" and multiple albums on each CD (and thus no. of
tracks in album < total no. of tracks). Hope that helps.
