Bug Reports / CLOSED: When Artist field has two values also 'artist1;artist2' is shown in ...

« on: August 30, 2019, 03:48:15 PM »

CLOSED

Version 3.3.7165 (fresh install)

When (certain) album tracks have multiple artists, both artist are shown in thumbnail browser and both show the tracks (as expected) when sort by Artist.

However also 'artist1;artist2' is shown as an artist in thumbnail browser and showing no tracks... I do no expect  'artist1;artist2' in thumbnail browser when sort by Artist.

I think I have found the cause, will report later.

>> seemed i had not split display artist field into individual artist fields

Bug Reports / Albums not shown when "Album Artist" has multiple values and Sort Album Artists

« on: August 30, 2019, 03:24:43 PM »

Version 3.3.7165 (fresh install)

Albums are not shown when "Album Artist" has multiple values (semi-column separated) and when "Other tags > Sort Album Artist" is selecte d in the thumbnail browser menu. When sorting using "Album Artist" it works as expected, i.e. albums are shown at all album artists.

Thanks,

Portable Devices / Synchronise playlist to iPod Shuffle (2nd gen): order gets mixed up

« on: October 15, 2016, 02:25:04 PM »

First of all: thanks a lot for giving us MusicBee, it's an excellent music manager and player !!

Using lastest patch (3160).

When I synchronise a playlist from my music collection (lossless) to my 2nd gen. iPod Shuffle using on the fly conversion, the playlist order get's mixed up. I guess since it starts multiple threads for converting and when a file has been converted immediately copies the file to my iPod Shuffle and then looses the correct order when conversion finishes not always exactly in the same order. Am I right?

It's seems not possible to change the iPod Shuffle's playing order after the initial synchronising (and actual copying the converted music files) has taken place. Or if it is possible, how can I do this?

Can you provide a solution?

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Bug Reports / Grouping (Album) not working correctly when using <Year (yyyy)>

« on: July 20, 2016, 07:35:16 PM »

Since I have many albums which have been reissued one or more time, I tried to group albums (Preferences, Grouping) by defining an album using following fields:

1. Album Artist
2. Album Name
3. Year (yyyy)

For example I have 3 versions of Bowie's Aladdin Sane album (all with the same Album name)

1. Reissue 1990, with Year field = 1990
2. Reissue 2003, with Year field = 2003
3. Reissue 2013, with Year field = 2013

However version 2 (2003) en 3 (2013) are not displayed as separate albums, while version 1 (1990) on the other hand is correctly displayed as one album.

Same happens for 3 versions of Ziggy Stardust (1990, 2002, 2012) where the 20xx albums are shown as one album.

Maybe not all 4 digits of the year are taken into account when grouping?


Anyway, I have made a workaround by grouping through a completely different field then Year (yyyy). MusicBee is GREAT piece of software, THANKS.


Very Kind Regards,
