Bugzilla – Bug 9662
Browsing by artist can list "All Songs" as various artists
Last modified: 2011-01-13 09:46:19 UTC
If you have an artist, and you browse to it, and the artist has several albums, and the last album alphabetically is a compilation (various artists) album which the artist in question is on, the "All Songs" field says "All Songs<nl>Various Artists" instead of "All Songs<nl>The Artist In Question". If you select the all songs entry, it seems to list all songs on Various Artists albums. This doesn't occur if the compilation album is not the last album in the list. I ran into this on John Hiatt. It listed 10 or so of his albums ("Austin City Limits" to "The Tiki Bar is Open", alphabetically), and the last album is a compilation, "A Tribute to Muddy Waters", and the above situation occurred. Tried with other artists for whom I had both albums and compilations they appeared on, and only appeared with this one, where the compilation was the last album alphabetically.
Eric: does the same thing happen when browsing that same artist via SC Web UI? Which version of SC do you have installed.
SC 7.2, Production version. Only appears on the controller, doesn't seem to occur on the Web UI, or on the player.
this isn't going to be fixed by 7.3. retarget for 7.3.1
Changing target to next release
with only these exceptions, my bug list is being retargetted for 8.0 for 7.3.2 (very soon): https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7186 Browse albums/artists/genres/ years should remember previous state for 7.3.3 (later, but before 8.0): https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7139 Add editable "Network Settings" page https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7502 Add setup mode to set Static IPs (even if DHCP is present) https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7829 Jive menu broken if BLOCK_SIZE == list count + 1 and "Pla... https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8878 Party Mode https://bugs-archive.lyrion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10064 SqueezeCenter doesn't always auto-generate playerstatus w...

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.
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.
7.4.x milestone is in the past
