Bugzilla – Bug 13897
Playing an album is very complicated in 7.4 (FW7433)

Playing an album is heavily complicated now. If a select a single song in an album then press 'forward' I'd expect to skip to the next song of the album (like I'm used from a CD-player). Instead the playlist is restarted (if there are no new items) which always confuses me. I realize that I can use the 'plus'-button on an album to get a popup where I can select to play the whole album. This is very cumbersome. I found the 7.3 way much more intuitive (i.e. pressing play on an album just starts it)
Will look into the confusion you are having, but to be clear-- pressing play on an album still just starts it, same as in 7.3.

This is another one that I think will be fixed by updating SqueezeCenter (now Squeezebox Server). I do not see this behavior on my setup. Selecting a single song in an album and pressing forward starts the track and pushes to the now playing screen. Pressing forward advances to the next track in the album. James- on comment#2, don't think bug 13898 has anything to do with this bug...maybe you marked that one dup of the wrong number?
If 13869 is fixed, then playing albums on the controller is fine again :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 13896 ***
