Description Nigel Birch 2006-11-01 11:50:38 UTC

This is with SlimServer v6.5.1 - 10511 - Windows XP - EN - cp1252; Perl v5.8.8 MSWin32-x86-multi-thread; MySQL v5.0.22-community-nt.

The Nokia770 page only lists a single genre, even if the song has multiple genres.  The song info page already supports multiple genres.

Thanks.

Comment 1 Chris Owens 2006-11-10 13:03:41 UTC

Just to reiterate, this is on the now playing page only.  The song info page shows multiple genres correctly.

Ben could you have a look?

Comment 2 Nigel Birch 2006-11-10 14:36:31 UTC

Yes, just the now playing page.  Or rather, that's the only place I've found (song info is fine).  Any there any others?

Comment 3 Ben Klaas 2006-11-10 15:19:48 UTC

I don't have an mp3 file with multiple genres, nor does my tagging program (easytag) seem to support them. Could you provide me one to test with?

Comment 4 Nigel Birch 2006-11-11 01:31:45 UTC

MP3 doesn't support multiple genres, AFAIK.  You can use SlimServer's "Multiple items in tags" to create multiple genres (I use ";").  Change the genre in the MP3 to something like "Rock;Blues" and SlimSerer will see it as having two genres.

I can upload one if you like (if that's easier).

multiple genres with links

this should do it.  it adds a custom ajax reponse txt for nokia770 status page, and builds the genre links in much the same way as the songinfo page.  slight change to status.js to load the links

Comment 7 Nigel Birch 2007-10-23 12:07:18 UTC

I'm not on v7.0, so I can't test.  But the sound of a fix sounds good, if you know what I mean - thanks.

Comment 8 KDF 2007-11-02 21:56:57 UTC

added to 7.0 at change 14337.  Please reopen if there are any issues.

Comment 9 Nigel Birch 2007-11-03 01:07:02 UTC

Thanks - I'm looking forward to 7.0!
