Bugzilla – Bug 17473
Clicking on artist in album list shows all compilations
Last modified: 2012-02-09 21:42:45 UTC
This has been tested in 7.6.1 r33110 The problem can be reproduced as follows: 1. In SBS web interface goto "Artists" menu and select an artist that participates on at least one compilation album. 2. In the list of albums, click on the artist name beside one of the compilation/multiple artists albums. (the artist link is not shown on albums where the artist is album artist) Result: All compilation albums are shown, independent if the artist has contributed on them or not. Expected result: Show all albums, normal and compilation, that the artist has contributed on.
Just for information, the artist link that doesn't work looks like this: http://localhost:9000/clixmlbrowser/clicmd=browselibrary+items&mode=albums&linktitle=Artist%20(The%20Corrs)&artist_id=1530&artwork=0&player=00%3A01%3A02%3A03%3A04%3A05/ While the one that does work, in the album header shown after clicking one of the normal albums where the artist is album artist, looks like this: http://localhost:9000/clixmlbrowser/clicmd=browselibrary+items&artist_id=1578&mode=albums&linktitle=Artist%20(The%20Corrs)/&player=00%3A01%3A02%3A03%3A04%3A05 As you can see, the artist_id is incorrect in the first link, it refers to the "Various Artists" artist instead of the artist the link name indicates.
VA / Comps strikes again! Erland, please add the "Compilations" keyword to this bug. (good report btw!)
I think this is a duplicate of the last part of the issue reported on bug 17370 (see comment #16 - https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17370#c16).
