Re[2]: [slim] Re: Browse Albums, New Music woes
Hi John Go to Server Settings...Formatting and scroll down to Title Format. Add this one and select it: DISC-TRACKNUM. TITLE (ARTIST) Then, in Player Settings (main page) change the Title Format and you should see the new one in the drop down. Works a treat for me.

Are you thinking about the 'title options' which is only for the showing the details of a particular song (e.g. in now playing) rather than in album view?

John You need to create the format in the server settings (this will affect the browser although you don't have to select the new format) and then you can select it from the player settings. This will only affect the particular player. Jon --- On Tuesday, March 22, 2005 at 8:06:24 PM you wrote: Dan Sully wrote: * John Hernandez shaped the electrons to say...

John - Check Server Settings - Formatting Also the 'show year with albums' only affects the web ui, it makes no differnence to the player ui. ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
