Index Artwork

[DavidHB]

Once again, I'm using this older thread rather than starting a new one. Before I get to my main point, I can follow up on the previous post (dated last July) by entdgc.

At some point Linn Kazoo was updated to show the top level menu as an icon grid, in the Windows and Android versions as well as in the Mac OS version for which entdgc provided the screenshot. This is IMO a significant improvement, as it givers the user a much better first impression of the app. It almost makes me want to use Kazoo on a regular basis . Hopefully BubbleDS/UPnP will follow suit.

My main point is to make a couple of feature requests relating to Index Artwork. Firstly, I think that MinimServer only searches the indexArtwork folder itself and not its subfolders. This could mean that indexArtwork could get very unwieldy, with (potentially) hundreds of image files in the same folder. Would it be possible for the search to include subfolders?

The other point relates to the section on Index Artwork in the User Guide. I found out by trial and error that the image file name has to be the same as the sort value, at least when using the [tag]/[tag]Sort method of displaying pages. Thus, if the entry is sorted, say, using ComposerSort in surname order ("Bach, Johann Sebastian"), but the display name is shown, using Composer, with first name or initials first ("Johann Sebastian Bach"), the image file name has to be "Bach, Johann Sebastian.jpg". I don't use the reverseName tag option, so I am not sure what the rule is in that case. But it would be helpful if the User Guide could clarify which file name is to be used in instances of this kind.
