Bugzilla – Bug 1695
Feature request (from Bugzilla Bug 1678: Navigation anomaly?)
Last modified: 2011-03-16 04:18:40 UTC
I have tried the 6/18 and 6/19 builds of v6.1.x and the behavior is no different. It would be nice if, when Browsing by Genre, the albums under an Artist were those only tagged as matching the selected Genre, not all albums by the Artist. It is fine if this behavior is set via a preference in the SlimServer. >------- Additional Comment #6 From Dean Blackketter 2005-06-16 21:17 ------- > > Julius: please file this as a separate bug if you see that it's not working in the next nightly. Thanks!
Fix commited as subversion change 3571. There is now a preference under the Settings-> Behavior menu.
I downloaded the v6.1 6/28 nightly (.dmg), and although the preference is there and selected to filter by genre, all items by artist are still displayed. The behavior hasn�t changed. I tried rescanning my library to see if that made any difference, but it did not. I also restarted my computer. I am running OS X 10.3.9.
After downloading each nightly through the 7/1 release, i now see what the problem is. There is a wording problem in the selections (as I see it): �Show any tracks or albums matching the selected genre for an artist� does what I wished the feature to do - only show the filtered results. �Only show tracks or albums matching the selected genre for an artist� doesn�t filter the results, but I read it as the expected outcome of the other choice. Maybe a rewording is necessary? Anyway, thanks for bringing back this behavior. Julius
The confusion seems to be that the two strings are saying the same thing for opposite functions. BAD: SETUP_NOGENREFILTER_1 EN Only show tracks & albums matching the selected genre for an artist SETUP_NOGENREFILTER_0 EN Show any tracks or albums matching the selected genre for an artist GOOD: SETUP_NOGENREFILTER_1 EN Show any tracks & albums for an artist SETUP_NOGENREFILTER_0 EN Only show tracks or albums matching the selected genre for an artist can be assigned to me if you want this committed. can still leave it open if we want to deal with a 'nicer' fix of some kind later.
Looks good to me.
committed to trunk at change 3624
