[bug] no artist-list since 0.7.11 (mobile feature upgrade)

Besides the webpage I am using a subsonic-client for a chumby-device. Since the last update it is not possible to get the artist-list (the one normally shown in the left browser-frame). The list the client gets is empty, or at least nothing is displayed. When i'm using my android-phone or the web-interface everything seems fine.

Hmm.. that's a bit tricky. I guess that the Chumby doesn't give any information on what's going wrong? I'll add some extended debugging on requests/responses to see if that gives any indication. But I don't have a Chumby and there are no official test suites to run to verify that the output produced is legal, so it will take some work to figure out why it fails.

Could you try adding some music to your server, scanning your library, and then connecting again using the Chumby? I was reading the code and wondering if the Chumby handles cached responses differently than other clients. (although it should have shown before.. it's just a wild shot)

Could you also check the subsonic.log file when the Chumby connects? It should say something like:
genreId = 4
genre = alt-country
or (if no genre is selected..)
genreId = 0
genre = null
I'd be interested to hear what it says for both your android and your chumby.

I think it has to do with the folder-(genre)-selection. I Found out that when i click on folderselection and choose a genre or all Genres it is possible to view the artistlist. It seems like that by default no genre (folder) is selected which is why nothing is listed in the beginnig.

Yeah, the default behavior from apps should be that when connecting the first time, no folder/genre is selected and all artists are therefore returned. That's how it works on my iSub and I guess on Android clients. I'd expect it to work on a Chumby too. The only explanation I can think of is that it sends something I'm not expecting and I'm curious what.
The first time your Chumby connects, what does it say in subsonic.log? There should at least be something like
genreId = ???
genre = ???
can you fill in the ???'s ?
