Using Custom Browse, I navigated to Ratings > 5* > Tangerine Dream > Tangerine Tree Volume 20 - Warsaw 1997, which listed one track rated 5*. From here, I wanted to play the whole album that the track belongs to.
However, there is no way that I can find to play the whole album on the Touch interface. There isn't a "Play All" option. I can't long-press the album name in the context menu to get a context menu for that selection. Custom Browse is only an example - the same issue exists when using standard menus to navigate to a filtered list of songs. It is easy from a classic Squeezebox player IR Remote (or web UI) - navigate into a song, select the album name and press play. The only alternative at the moment is to navigate to the artist, and find the album to play. This is annoying - especially as I have a lot of Tangerine Dream albums (267!). I've never particularly liked it that the context menu is handled differently to normal browse behaviour. The problem is that the context menu is a collection of actions and navigateable items (and read-only properties). All context items are treated as if they are actions. I think context menu items that are not actions but are navigatable items (eg. artist name, album name, etc), should have context menus available on those items. Then it would be possible to long-touch an album name within the song context menu, and then select play on that album name. _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
