Bugzilla – Bug 1706
Artist tracks with defined Genre and No Genre are both sorted under defined Genre

I noticed this one after the recent database upgrade for playlistdb-bmf branch. If you have some tracks by the same artist that have a genre tag and some that do not, browsing by Genre shows all the tracks by that artist under the defined Genre - even the ones without genre tags. I hope that makes sense. This behavior has changed from before the branch was merged. NetBSD 1.6.2/perl 5.8.7/SlimServer_v2005-06-24
I've noticed this bug as well, here is the best way I can explain it. If Band A has a SINGLE song tagged with genre X, and you browse to genre X you will see EVERY album and song by Band A. For me this really makes browsing/playing by genre not even an option. For example, I've created a "Live" genre and have marked all live performance tracks as such. The problem is that if I try to play all my "Live" tracks at once I get every track by every band that has atleast one live track in my collection. I usually keep up with the nightly release so I don't know exactly when this bug came up. I am currently running: Windows Professional/SlimServer_v2005-06-20
Fix commited as subversion change 3571. There is now a preference under the Settings-> Behavior menu.
This bug was marked resolved in Slimserver 6.1, which is several versions ago. If you're still seeing this bug, please re-open it. Thanks!
