Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Scan doesn't find new artists if there is more than one artist
Thanks! One thing I forgot: If You look for the file/artist described above, it's actually named "Tina (02)" ( did some remaining meanwhile to ensure "new and changed" recognizes it as "changed"). frank1969's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31156 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102375 ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Scan doesn't find new artists if there is more than one artist
.. the only thing that doesn't work correctly seems to be FTS For although "Tina Werner" is in the db as TRACKARTIST ans is in the "Trackartist"-List - it is found by FTS in no combination - it just gives no result...

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Scan doesn't find new artists if there is more than one artist
For instance, the My Music / Browse Artists "i" just says Browse Artists. Thanks! I took your wording and added the description to the web UI. -- Michael ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Scan doesn't find new artists if there is more than one artist
But it only includes: - albums, where the artist is "album artist" and - albums, where the artist is a "(track) artist", when the album has set NO "album artist" or "album artist" is set to "various artists" (and compilation = "1") It does NOT include - albums, where the artist is a "track artist" and someone else is "album artist". This is not consequent, isn't?` I think that's exactly how it's supposed to be. "track artists" are treated like "album artists" if there's no "album artist" for a given folder. If there is an AA, then the track artist is not shown. If I chose the option "Use single, configurable list..." - how can I "configure" it? You can define what type of contributor should be listed in the artists list: band, composer etc. It's the old behaviour, as known in 7.8 and older. -- Michael ___ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Scan doesn't find new artists if there is more than one artist
Michael, I think frank1969 has hit on the missing element of your recent excellent work on Browse Modes - we don't really know what each option does. For instance, the My Music / Browse Artists "i" just says Browse Artists. Could the "i" list what the two options do - for example Use two separate lists for Album Artists and All Artists - Album Artists is a list where Album Artist is the sole artist on an album or is the artist specified in the "Albumartist" tag. All Artists is a list of every artist that appears in the "Artist" tag. Use single, configurable list of artists - This is configured in the Additional Browse Mode plugin. Then in Player / Additional Browse Modes there is the option to select menu names. Again for each row could there either be a "Contains" column or an "i" field such as: Album Artists - the sole artist on an album or the artist specified in the "Albumartist" tag. Artists - the sole artist on an album All Artists - a list of every artist that appears in the "Artist" tag. Albums - a list of the "Album" tag. Random Albums - a random list of albums. Compilations - a list of albums that are compilations (compilation tag = 1 or multiple artists in the artist tag) etc. This probably shows my lack of understanding on how these extra browse modes are meant to work. A camel is a racehorse designed by a committee.

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Scan doesn't find new artists if there is more than one artist
I think I found out what causes this behaviour - but I think it's a bug or not a feature: I have "My Music" set to "Use single configurable list of artists "Only show tracks or albums matching the selected genre of an artist". This works fine that it avoids to see all the albums the artist is only composer in my list (e.g. when i search for Bob Dylan, I don't wanna see the albums of german singer "Mary Roos" just cause she covered some Dylan-songs...) But it only includes: - albums, where the artist is "album artist" and - albums, where the artist is a "(track) artist", when the album has set NO "album artist" or "album artist" is set to "various artists" (and compilation = "1") It does NOT include - albums, where the artist is a "track artist" and someone else is "album artist". This is not consequent, isn't?` I would expect to see: Either only albums where the artist is "album artist" or (preferably) all albums where the artis is "album artist" OR "track artist". But the most confusing thing - I think - is, that when You start a search right from LMS home page (using the "reading glass symbol") - artist is not found at all, if he only is track artist on another artists album ... (But it IS found when he/she is track artist on at least one compilation album (or has an album on its own). So I think, this should be thought over (while I admit, it hast nothing to do with FTS) Second question: If I chose the option "Use single, configurable list..." - how can I "configure" it?

So, You're right, it didn't come with FTS - it seems to exist "longer". Did some other testing too: - Did a full rescan with the actual nightly - same mistake - Made a "1:1" copy of the album where I DELETED the album artist and rescanned with most recent nightly. The result is quite surprising: Anything is fine, "Tina Werner" can be found via search function and is listed in the artists list (only: the album is now listed under "various artists" of course. I just sent You the file by mail @slimserver.com - although I don't believe it's a problem with tagging. The only thing I have in mind: I'm working with cofigurable artist lists in settings and with the option "Nur zur gewählten Rolle passende Alben und Titel anzeigen"? Two things that point against this reason: - This would maybe explain the missing in artists section - but it should be found via search?

Re: [SlimDevices: Beta] Scan doesn't find new artists if there is more than one artist
I now tested with my "kitchen NAS" - the kitchen NAS is a 1:1 copy from my original system, running "Logitech Media Server Version: 7.8.1 - 1402661598". ... and with this "old" version, everything is fine: "Tina Werner" can be found while using the search form So anything is going wrong with the search routine in the nightlies... Your claim was that it worked fine in 7.9 until I added full text search. Could you please double-check with an old 7.9 build to confirm this? A lot has change wrt. artist handling long before the fts. (Rem.: On this 7.8.1 she is not listed in the "artists section" as well - but this seems only to include artists that have at least one album where they are listed as "album artist" - has there been another behaviour in 7.8.1 - and could this behaviour has "come back" in the lastest nightlies?)
