kdf, I think there's a problem with the image containing a onClick event,  
instead of using a href. Is there a reason you didn't wrap the image in a

sorry about that.


No problem! I'm kind of getting used to this kind of copy/paste problem :-)

however, I think there may be a way to handle this with template toolkit  
so that we can avoid having two versions of the script.
splitting it off from common.js and PROCESS'ing it would allow us to  
wrap using something like [% useFrames %] in cmdwrappers

2006-07-20 Thread dangerous_dom

I am using 6.5b1 - 8509 (XP) due to being disapointed with 6.3. It seems
to be working very well for me, except one small thing...

Albums with various artists list every artist after the album name,
rather than saying "[album] by Various Artists". It looks very messy
and brosing by album. I am sure SS used to just say "By Various
Arists".

Is this a bug, and feature, or is there a way around this?

Song counts should be pretty close.  I believe the artist count will
vary in SlimServer depending on how you have your compilation options
set.

I found that the library counts of pre-merge and post-merge 6.5 were
pretty close.  The number of artists is higher with the newer version,
while the album count is a few less, but the number of tracks
identical.  I wish I had an easy way of counting albums in Windows
Explorer so I could figure out which one is right.

2006-07-19 Thread Wirrunna

After reading this thread I downloaded and installed
SlimServer_v2006-07-19.exe for WinXP, upgrading from 6.3.1 . Looks
good, browsing all works fast and well.
Browsing while doing a "Clear & Rescan" works fast, in fact the GUI
responds well during the scan - well done!! Music also plays without
stuttering.
Rescan time 15 minutes in 6.5b1, 6.3.1 took 40 minutes
Issues so far -
1.Rescan did not pick up playlists either from Music Magic or
C:\Doc\My Music.
2. Music Magic plugin - does not display "mm" after selecting a track,
so cannot create mix.
3. Library scan shows 1851 albums with 12877 songs by 1452 artists,
MusicIP shows Songs:13,017(12,992 mixable)2,430 Artists and 2,997
Albums; iTunes shows 13,018 songs, 2216 Artists and 953 Albums. Don't
ask me to reconcile these ! I'm slowly fixing up the compilation album
flag so albums are expected to be out of whack.

I am having issues with:
1) SoftSqueeze feeling very sluggish through the menus.
2) Partial rescan doesn't currently detect any new music (I think Dan is 
looking at that now).
3) Some layout problems with Handheld skin.
4) Some plugins not quite right yet.

Other than that it seems pretty good to me.

I'd say go for it.  It's fairly stable - not quite up to where it was
before the merge, but getting close.  Some nice enhancements to the web
interface that makes it worthwhile, IMO.  There are some performance
issues in the web interface that are probably the biggest drawback at
the moment.

I can't say the scanner is noticably faster, but then I've never timed
it either before or after the merge.  Feels about the same.

There were a few problems I was seeing previously (duplicate songs,
"Various Artist" problems, All Songs in Library showing instead of all
songs by artist), but all of these seem to have been fixed in a fairly
short space of time recently. Also, Triode has recently added a few
performance tweaks aimed at web page building.

All things considered, this seems to me like a good time to try a
recent release.
