Subsonic Forum

I absolutely love everything about Subsonic but the recent switch to displaying the Album Artist field for track artists when viewing an item in my huge Compilations (or Various Artist) section is driving me crazy. Is this something like the year album sort that will be an option or perhaps reverted in the next update? Please? Thanks for a great and essential piece of software.

I don't know why Sindre made such a half hearted attempt to start using the album artist tag. And I guess it's gonna be a while before a new version (4.8 ) appears.

If it's a big issue, I'd suggest looking at one of the mods available. MadEvil: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=9187 or mine: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=9504. I have it set up so that album artists appear in the left frame, but the artist tag is displayed when browsing, scrobbling and searching. Tracks from Various Artists albums also appear when you click the real artist link in the left frame, like this: http://i.imgur.com/Hw4aH.png. (I only have an EP by artist Moneybrother, but he has a track, "Morbror Frans", on a compilation album that also gets displayed when clicking "Moneybrother" in the left frame).

You could probably also go back to 4.7 beta2 (the album artist "bug" was introduced in 4.7 beta3, right?)

[quote][/quote]Hello Hakko,

I finally got fed up waiting for an upgrade and tried to install your Music Cabinet suggestion but I could not configure the database and in my haste didn't make a backup of my settings. I know I'm an idiot... Subsonic is running on WIN 7 with the Music Library on an external Drobo.

Can you offer advise (and let's face it, pity) to someone well versed in using software and following directions but a complete novice in regard to how programming and systems actually work. I think

I've uninstalled the two programs (SQL and MSVisual ++) uninstalled and re-installed Subsonic but this is the screen I get:

Thank you very much for getting this far and I hope to hear from you.

Sincerely,

Rename C:\Subsonic to something else, restart. This topic normally tells how to recover user settings, but it won't work straight out of the box as MusicCabinet stores passwords as salted hash sums (safer!) than clear-text as vanilla Subsonic does. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10338

I don't really get why you installed MSVisual++ ?

OK.. Thank you very much. The system is coming back up and re-scanning. However, I was not successful getting my User Data back. When I do the cut and paste I get this Error:

Error
Violation of unique constraint $$: duplicate value(s) for column(s) $$: SYS_PK_50

Nevermind... I did get the Users just have to reset their passwords. I am getting a message that the transcoding is not installed though.

Transcoding back after Subsonic reinstall but now it won't register my subsonic.org domain, although the port is forwarding and open.
