Kazoo beta 4.9.5 - antonmb - 28-12-2015 19:35

Hi Simon,
I'm testing the latest Kazoo beta on an iPad and find that my multi-disc albums no longer work. If I select an individual disk (e.g. Disc 1, Disc 2) it fails to add tracks. Are you testing this yet, and have seen this problem? Is there any change in Minimserver properties that can show these as individual discs until Linn sorts this out, or do I need to change tags? I've tried just removing the trailing ")" on a couple of albums as a temporary workaround and this works, but I have a lot of multi-disc albums and would hate to change them all. I can of course just go back to the current release of Kazoo or use Lumin, but where's the fun in that?

Many thanks

I have just responded to your post on the Linn forum about this. I think it's best to continue the discussion there so that it's all on a single thread. It isn't possible to work around this problem by changing MinimServer properties.

Great, thanks.

Simon, I'm not sure if you're watching the beta thread on the Linn forum, but I've been having trouble with the index alpha bar showing. I've found that with TagOptions set to "all.ignore.sort={The, El, Los, La, von, Der}", the alpha index bar won't show. If I remove the "all.ignore.sort", the alpha index shows up for Album Artist, All Artists, and Items. However then I'm stuck with The Allman Brothers, The Beatles, The Doors, etc., all listed under "T". As a test I also tried changing "The Beatles" to "Beatles, The" and adding to Tag Options the ReverseName option, which sorts and displays correctly, but then the index bar doesn't show again. Do you have any additional thoughts, or is this just a Kazoo issue Linn has to figure out?

I have not managed to get Kazoo 4.8.927 (iOS) discovering Minimserver (0.8.3) and upmpdcli (0.13.1) in my network. Kinsky and Lumin work flawlessly, although Kinsky does not display cover art in the "now playing" upper left corner field. Is this a known problem of 4.8? Should I (try to) move to 4.9.5? Thanks, nbpf

I saw your post on the Linn forum and I think it's best to keep discussions about this issue with the Kazoo beta on the Linn forum.
