Re: [slim] Coverart in Music Folder

2022-11-07 Thread JosepTB


I use folder browsing a lot, because for me it's the most similar way to
browsing the records in a store, without looking specifically for a
performer or composer.

Couldn't it be programmed in a simple way, showing instead of the folder
icon the file "folder.jpg" or "cover.jpg", if it exists? And if not,
keep the folder icon.

Thank you!!

I know you want to use 'music folder', but have you tried using "New
Music" menu item under music library.  I also have a very meticulously
organized artist and album folder structure, but don't find any need to
use "music folder" browsing in LMS.  When I add new albums to my
library, they show up by most recently added within the "new music" menu
option.  Also, in LMS > Settings > My Music tab, I set the "new music"
limit to larger than my music collection (in my case I set it to
200,000) and this way when I look at new music item, I see my complete
collection, listed by date added from most recent to oldest.

It's software, anything could be done. But it's unlikely going to 
happen: in order to display album artwork LMS would have to drill down 
one level deeper to figure out what image to use. So potentially it 
would have to read all tracks for all albums before being able to show 
the folder list.

Thank you for the answer. The reason is because I keep a very good order
by folder as well. When I have new music (I am talking of a lot files),
which I have not catalogued properly, I prefer to navigate by folder
because I can find the songs/album more easier (as I know in which
folder the files are).

Do you think it can be added as feature in the future? I am just
asking...of course for me it would be good to have it but I can survive
very well without as well. It is an fantastic player and I really love
it.

Thanks!!

Please could you advice if there is a way to see the cover picture in
the folder when I navigate my music using "Music Folder"?


That's currently not supported.

Why do you use Music Folder? There are reasons to use it but if you can
explain why it may help someone understand your issue more clearly.
If you used Artists or Albums or New Music you'd see exactly what you
are asking for.
