Bugzilla – Bug 9234
Allow you to jump to an alphabetical letter to browse through artist
Last modified: 2011-11-06 23:24:33 UTC
A customer asked for this enhancement. He would like to see another browse option. Right now we can browse through: Artist Album Genre Years What the customer would like to see is basically a list of the alphabet. This is so you can jump to a certain letter to browse only the Artists starting with that letter. So if you want to browse for artists starting with the letter M, you can just scroll quickly to the letter M.
Dean, can you comment on and assign this one.
Well, I'd prefer to make the scrolling more intuitive. Caleb: Can you give some guidance here?
Ya, this is the same old scrolling of long lists problem we talked about long ago that's fixed in Boom & SB3, but needs work on controller. I can take this when I get some free time, or if somebody wants to get into a little bit of math, I can describe the algorithm we use in Boom, which I think is the most applicable. Ben, What's the current ability of SqueezeOS to request partial lists of items from SC? What I'd like is to be able to submit a request for an arbitrary, disjoint list of items in a list. With that, we can make the scrolling really sweet. -Caleb
requesting partial lists of arbitrary partial chunks from SC is not a problem.
Caleb to address this...
Moving to the product SqueezePlay because this bug appears to apply to any player based on that application code. Feel free to move it back if it's specific to the single original product.
Tom - Caleb says you have been working this area. Can you prioritize?
this is an administrative shuffle on priority fields to help make better judgment on the top end of the priority list. P4->P5, P3->P4, and P2->P3.
is a sb3 feature.

additional detail from dup bug: (In reply to comment #4) > From Help > Remote Control Reference: > > Tip: In sorted lists such as lists of artists, albums or genres, press the number buttons to jump to the first item that starts with the corresponding letter. > > Tip: In unsorted lists such as playlists, press a number button to jump proportionally through the list.
Tom, these are two totally different bugs: 9234 is about an additional menu level, 13779 is about enabling the remote's alphanumerical keys to jump within a list.

That's a dupe of the other one, which wasn't a dupe ;-)
Moving these bugs to P4 to make room for moving P1.5 bugs to P2
Administrative move of 7.5 bugs. All P2, P3, P4 being downgraded one level. Will then split P1s.
Moving lower-priority bugs to next target
Tom is no longer available to us
Unassigned bugs cannot have a priority.
