Album date display on playback

[Red Rooster]

Hi Simon,

Can you confirm how to display the date of the album alongside the other details on playback?

You did indicate yesterday to me on another thread which has been modified/edited before I got to write down the coding required in the field needed.

Kind Regards

The forum went majorly titsup yesterday, it seems...

Add:

Album.displayFormat={$Album^$Date^ [^]}

to tagFormat in Advanced Properties and you're good to go.

Hi there,

Many thanks. Thought I was going a little mad there. There was also some mention that I could either replace what's already there which is this

Artist.displayFormat={$artist$orchestra$conductor}

or add it on to the existing tag above preceded with a comma (space after a comma too before code?)

I am a novice at this, so small steps at a time.

Kind Regards

Martin

Just append it with the comma and space:

, Album.displayFormat={$Album^$Date^ [^]}

Covers all eventualities.

Simon would clarify whether the space is actually necessary or not, it may just be a case of readability.

Exactly so.
