| Summary | 0012410: Genres view is incorrect for compilation albums | ||||
| Description | 1 Click the Genres view, genres are shown as follows: GENRE , x albums, y tracks 2 Clicking the Genre --> [Artists] | Albums | Tracks Album Artist A 1 Album, z tracks Album Artist B w Albums Album Artist C v Albums However the number of albums listed here doesn't match the number of albums listed at step 2 doesn't match the number of Albums listed at step 1!! 3 Click Album Artist B (where Album Artist |= Artist) --> No albums and no tracks are contained within!! I think that the root of the problem is that at step 1, the number of Albums is based (correctly) on Tracks matching the Genre. But at step 2, Album Artists are shown and tracks contained within an Album Artist such as 'Various' (i.e. for compilation albums) is unrelated to the number from step 1. It would be preferable to use Artist to Album Artist at this step. Finally at step 3, I'm not sure what the issue is--I guess it's a faulty query. | ||||

There's still a problem. e.g. for the following tracks with Genre=Rock Track A, Album D, Artist=X, Album Artist=Various Track B, Album E, Artist=X, Album Artist=Various --> Genre > Artists shows two nodes: 1) Artist=X. Clicking this node works as expected. 2) Artist=Various. Clicking this node shows empty Album and Tracks. The simplest solution might be to not show the Album Artist. BUT if we think that it should be shown, then it should contain Albums/Tracks with Album Artist=Various that match Genre=Rock. |

Used media artists only for this view. Fixed in build 1.1.0.0353 |

Tested 353, and the bug still occurs in the same manner as 352. |

Fixed in build 1.1.0.354. It happened, because "Various" was also media artist of some track of other genre. Now sql query is completely new with filtered numbers of #albums and #tracks by the genre(Till now were all albums and tracks of artist displayed in #albums #tracks ). Genre/artists shows just "media Artists", so I think that the #albums info is unnecessary (and sometimes misleading) in this view, because we aren't displaying albums of "Album Artists" in "Genre/Album Artists/albums". Same case is in "Artists" view. Should be #albums info hidden for these views? I think yes. |

So ALBUM ARTIST has been removed from Genre > GENREX > Artist (so now 'Various' doesn't appear), which seems to be reasonable. However, Genres > GENREX > ALBUMY shows all tracks from ALBUMY! It should only show tracks from ALBUMY for which Genre=GENREX. Also, there's now a bug that the thumbnail for each Artist in Genres > GENREX > Artists often consists of a single Album Art image in _triplicate_! I believe that this is a regression in build 354. |
