Description William Scott 2004-03-12 16:48:32 UTC

Possible enhancement - It would be great if SlimServer supported multi-values 
for genre possible using ID3 ver. 2 tags. Many songs fall under more than one 
genre. For instance, an Al DiMeola selection could have genres Jazz, 
Instrumental, Guitar defined. This way Browsing by Genre would allow a single 
song to appear as part of many genres. This would allow for better "auto-
generated playlists" to suit mood using Browse by Genre.
A further enhancement would be to allow multi-selection of genres e.g. "Guitar 
AND Instrumental" or "Jazz OR Instrumental".

This is already done, allowing separation by ; or NULL.
Should already be in March 16 nightly build.

committed to cvs March 31 to add support for splitting by / as per ID3 spec.

There are 536 bugs in the database with targets of '---' that were fixed prior to new year 2006.  I am setting them to targets of 6.2.1 to keep them from showing up in my queries.
