Bugzilla – Bug 16409
Playlists menu should show album/artist
Last modified: 2013-05-16 13:50:58 UTC
Currently the Playlists menu in SqueezePlay seems to only show the title format configured for the web interface for each track in a playlist, this title format typically doesn't contain ARTIST or ALBUM. Due to this it's really hard to navigate in playlists since you basically only see the track title so it's hard to know what artist/album a specific track belongs to. Since the web interface always always shows artists and albums as separate links it's inappropriate to configure this information in the title format. Solution 1 (recommended): - Make the Playlists menu show tracks the same way as the current playlist shows tracks, with artist/album information on a second row - When using the large skin, we may only want to show the first row (containing the track title) because else the fonts will get to small to be shown from distance. Solution 2: - Make it possible to configure a special title format to be used when listing tracks in SqueezePlay, this will make it possible to configure this title format to also show artist and album information.
