Bugzilla – Bug 2247
Album information is duplicated in playlist info in web interface
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:37:04 UTC
Every item in my playlist, including the now playing item at the top has the album information duplicated. This is best shown by example: 1. 'Little Fluffy Clouds' by Orb from 'Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2)' from Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2) Delete 2. 'Earth (gaia)' by Orb from 'Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2)' from Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2) Delete 3. 'Supernova At The End Of The Universe' by Orb from 'Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2)' from Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2) Delete 4. 'Back Side Of The Moon' by Orb from 'Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2)' from Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2) Delete 5. 'Spanish Castles In Space' by Orb from 'Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2)' from Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2) Delete The above is from the en skin, but default does exactly the same. Fishbone is fine. In addition, with the default skin, the now playing information is given as: 1. 'Little Fluffy Clouds' by Orb from 'Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2)' from Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld (1/2) by Orb en does not have the above problem.
what is your titleformat set to?
TRACKNUM. 'TITLE' by ARTIST from 'ALBUM'
status_list in Default and EN need to be using [% IF includeAlbum && album && album != noAlbum %] I'll fix that tonight, and see if I can find out why the current song in "now palying" is also messed up. Might I suggest simply using TRACKNUM.TITLE for the webformat, as this will provide you with separate artist and album links in the web listings.
Thanks, I've switched to TRACKNUM.TITLE. I like the resulting display, but isn't it a bit counter intuitive to have TRACKNUM.TITLE also include album and artist? It's also something of a hidden feature, as it doesn't say anywhere that this is what happens. Still, that would be the topic for another bug.
What if you think of is like this: album and artist are not a track title. If you happen to want your titleformat to include artist and album (and also be a single boldfaced link), then those extra links are considered redundant and do not appear (well, they won't after tonight :) By default, titleformat is TITLE, so the users are presented straight away with this feature. Having the ALBUM and ARTIST options in the titleformat is what seems odd to me, except that they have to be there in order to be options for the playerUI.
Sounds like this is explained well. Reopen if there's still an issue.
There is still an issue. Please see comment 3 by KDF. Default and EN are currently broken. KDF may already have fixed this, but if he has the bug should be FIXED not INVALID.
ok then.
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.
