I posted about this a while ago
(https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?103330-Jivelite-for-piCorePlayer&p=850831&viewfull=1#post850831)
but didn't really receive a useful response, and am keen to try and fix
it again.
I group series of compilations together by tagging them as having an
album artist, i.e. 'DJ-Kicks', 'Back To Mine', 'Soundtracks', 'Various
Artists' are all album artists in my library. Notably, though, each of
these series also have the compiler as the artist, so the Faithless Back
To Mine CD looks as follows:
Albumartist: Back to Mine // Faithless (two entries)
Album: Back To Mine: Faithless (single entry, obvs)
Artist: (whatever artist did the track)
This way, when I want to browse a compilation series, I just visit the
compilation 'albumartist' (e.g. 'Back To Mine')
BUT ADDITIONALLY, when I am browsing albumartists and view 'Faithless'
the compilation will also appear there.
HOWEVER
With the Jivelite skin, this means that the now playing screen shows:
[song name]
Faithless, Back To Mine, [song artist]
Which is annoying and redundant. Especially when it shows 'Various
Artists' on every compilation.
So, I was just wondering if there was any way to show just the *track*
artist ('artist' field) on Jivelite's Now Playing screen, and *NOT* the
album artist, too.
I'm guessing I'll have to edit something in vi, but I took a dig on the
Jivelite github and got lost very quickly.
If anyone knows what to change (and how to make the changes survive a
reboot), I'd be much obliged if they can point me in the right
direction.
Thanks so much!
