hello,
i discover MinimServer, and try to use it while remaining compatible with MusiCHI and LMS (i use Squeezeboxes).
Musichi tagger brings some constraints :
for index tags, i prefer like that because showing matches the sort order, but i would like the normal form for display on the control point (i test with Kazoo or Kinsky on Windows 10).
for the first try, i created a new indextag AlbumArtists (Musichi allows to map AlbumArtist tag as AlbumArtists) :
i then tried to transpose the documentation example for reverseName :
i finally tried this :
i noticed also that artist doesn't show in the album view for tracks if a work/ group is defined for them : any idea to explain that ?
thanks for the reply
i discover MinimServer, and try to use it while remaining compatible with MusiCHI and LMS (i use Squeezeboxes).
Musichi tagger brings some constraints :
- at the contrary of MinimServer, Musichi uses albumartist tag(s) at track level, on this form "LastName, FirstName [instrument]"
- composers have this form "LastName, FirstName (birth-death)"
- by default, it doesn't handle sort tags as all involved performers are filled with a "directly" sortable name
for index tags, i prefer like that because showing matches the sort order, but i would like the normal form for display on the control point (i test with Kazoo or Kinsky on Windows 10).
for the first try, i created a new indextag AlbumArtists (Musichi allows to map AlbumArtist tag as AlbumArtists) :
- indexTags : AlbumArtists
- tagValue : Artist.merge={AlbumArtists}
i then tried to transpose the documentation example for reverseName :
- indexTags : AlbumArtists
- itemTags : AlbumArtistsSort
- tagOptions : AlbumArtists.reverseName.display
- tagValue : AlbumArtistsSort.value.sort={AlbumArtists}, AlbumArtistsSort.default={AlbumArtists.custom}, Artist.merge={AlbumArtistsSort}
i finally tried this :
- aliasTags : AlbumArtists:Artist
- indexTags : Artist
- tagOptions : Artist.reverseName.display, Composer.reverseName.display
i noticed also that artist doesn't show in the album view for tracks if a work/ group is defined for them : any idea to explain that ?
