Description Dieter 2005-09-25 12:18:20 UTC
When "browsing for an artist" which has both complete albums as well as single
songs on VA albums using the web interface on slimserver ALL albums (the
complete AND the VA albums) are shown for this artist. On the squeezebox using
the remote, however, only the complete albums are shown. There should also the
VA albums be shown as in the web interface.

When I use "search for artists" instead also on the squeezebox ALL albums
containing songs of this artist are correctly shown (even the VA albums).

I have of course set the option not to include artists which have songs ONLY on
compilations in the browse artist list.

Dan,
Is there a chance that this will be solved in the 6.2 final (which you have
announced in the forum for the end of this month)? 

I would like to see all songs of important artists (that are artists of which I
have at least one complete album) when browsing artists not only in the web
interface but in the same way on my squeezebox. Only artists for which I don't
have at least one complete album (REAL VA artists) should not overcrowd the
browse artist list.
Dieter
