Selecting a set of tracks

Having showExtras enabled shouldn't cause this. Which control point are you using? What exactly do you see under the Abbado Claudio container?

Quote:I'm straight back to the duplicates and more problem I have tried (and probably failed) to explain before. I get the whole album and some duplicates. If I turn off the (useful) showExtras I get the right tracks, but not in the right order.

Again, I'm not sure why showExtras should make any difference to this. Are the tracks sorted alphabetically by their title?

Quote:There are other selections I do from time to time which don't involve whole works. So I may want to pick all tracks from La Boheme with two particular singers (Artists). When I get them on screen I can't just 'play' them as seen. No 'group' tag will help with this.

This would be similar to the Abbado Claudio situation discussed earlier in this post. For this, you wouldn't want to use grouping because you wouldn't be able to select just one track from within a group.

Quote:I really do want to play what I see on screen, no more, no less, however I have selected it, and regardless of any deeper meaning being imposed by the server on the data. The fundamental menu structure provided is great, partly because there is almost no meaning imposed on the data by the server - just tags in common. The meaning is imposed inside my head.

I understand. It seems surprising that most control points don't allow this.
