Re: [slim] Empty albums in virtual library
Hey DJanGo: like I said, toggling the setting how the compilations should be grouped doesn't change anything (even after clean LMS reinstall!). It was one of the first things I looked at because it seems like a natural candidate. And it's not just limited to my plugin. I can reproduce this with the advanced search GUI as well: search for all tracks that include AAA in comment tag, save that as a library view, create artist menu for that view with the extended browse mode plugin. Et voilà: same empty albums problem that I get with my 'plugin' (https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?109334-Virtual-Libraries-help-beginner-please&p=918401&viewfull=1#post918401). What's buggin me is that I don't have this problem with LMS in my VM. So there must be some difference I'm overlookin (I really hope it's not OS related) afriend's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39306 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109367 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Empty albums in virtual library
Hi. When I create a virtual library (view) with an *artists* menu (on the top level), some artists in that menu have - -in addition to the correct albums- - *empty albums* listed (= when you click on them, it says empty). They shouldn't even be listed in this library view because while they do contain tracks by these artists, these tracks do not meet the selection criteria of the library view. These -empty- albums are all compilation albums. Here's what I've tried/found out so far: - It doesn't matter how I create the library view (plugin or advanced search UI). - I've erase every(!) trace of LMS on my server and reinstalled everything from scratch, rescan, redo all the settings... problem is still there (macOS 10.13.6, latest LMS 7.9 build) - in the *Settings > My Music* my settings are: - Browse Artists = use *single*, configurable list - Composer, Conductor, Band/Orchestra *un*checked - List compilation albums *under each artist* (switching this to the alternative settings has no effect regarding the empty album problem) - Treat TPE2 MP3 Tag as *Album Artist* - No error message(s) in the server.log And now here's where it gets interesting/weird: I've installed LMS with a part of my music files in a virtual machine (macOS 10.12.6). I've tried to use the exact same settings. But in the virtual machine there are no empty albums! The problem does not exist there. I'm running out of idea on where to look, which setting etc. Any ideas/suggestions as to what might cause this? (things that I haven't tired yet) Thank you. afriend's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39306 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109367 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Virtual Libraries - help beginner please
So I gave up on the idea of having a menu group for the menu I've created. It's too difficult for me. If somebody digs up this thread at some time and get this working, please post your code here. One final (I hope) question *regarding the _genre_ menu I've created for -compilations-*. The menu levels are like this: COMPIS BY GENRE[/B] (TOP LEVEL NAME) *> GENRES* (WHERE YOU SELECT A GENRE) *> ARTISTS* (IT SHOWS YOU ALL ARTISTS IN THIS GENRE, YOU SELECT -ALL ALBUMS-) *> ALL ALBUMS [B]How can I eliminate the artists menu level and make it go straight from -genres- to -all albums- from this genre?* (preferably ordering albums by name) afriend's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=39306 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109334 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Why is LMS using such an old SQLite version?
My library is 30k tracks (on a NAS) and the bottleneck is I/O for sure, the SATA died and wiped out the disks, so I rebuilt it with Win7 booting from a USB drive. You're running LMS from a different computer than where the files are saved? This kind of I/O might be the bottleneck during the scan. But I could imagine that when TrackStat is doing its job, it's LMS server side only, no access to the files. I might be wrong. But please double check, because your machine seems more than powerful enough to process 30k tracks. Check the resource monitor while TrackStat is running. Monitor disk, network, cpu and memory usage. It has 8x (i7) CPU cores and 16Gb RAM so is strong Did you check LMS' memory settings for the database? -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

My library is 30k tracks (on a NAS) and the bottleneck is I/O for sure, the SATA died and wiped out the disks, so I rebuilt it with Win7 booting from a USB drive. It has 8x (i7) CPU cores and 16Gb RAM so is strong enough. I can't change the OS due to other software, it works fine day to day but definitely chewing on the db rebuild when Trackstat does a massive update query after a full rescan. So I would like to see if I can play around with the database side of things and happy to share anything useful I find.
