Numeric key selection not correct within Browse New Music
Last modified: 2007-10-23 18:30:38 UTC
When browsing New Music, the number keys jump to the first occurence of a track title starting with the letter represented by the keypress. This is not the correct selection mechanism for New Music, as the song titles are not ordered. The numeric keypad should allow a position number to be entered, so pressing 5 and 5 should go to the 55th track, not the first track beginning with "K".
we've never had multiple number entry (the enhancement is already filed somewhere). Numeric entry on unsorted lists is by percentage. 5 goes to middle, 7 goes to 70% etc. Only the old shoutcast plugin (pre-opml) used to use multiple number entry
The artist search list uses number entry. Eg. when I search for "The", I get 38 matches. If I type 28, it takes me to the 28th entry. That's how I would expect the New Music menu screen to work.
sorry, my mistake. number entry is available for long lists. I expect, however, that new music is appearing as a sorted list, so therefore not taking number entry. The isSorted param needs to be specific to alpha sorting.
