Ability to refresh library & Ability to list by ID3 Tags

Postby GH0 » Mon Dec 19, 2011 12:26 am

The only two suggestions that I have at the current time are:

The ability to refresh the library on the left pane without having to refresh the page, which inevitably stops the music. As when adding music, this can cause some problems.

The ability to list items in your library by ID3 Tags, as organizing by folders (which I really should have done in the first place) is not always done properly (cough me cough). This beats having to go in and re-organize the folder structure.

Not sure about all browsers but in chrome and I believe FF if you right click in the left frame you have the option to refresh frame (which will leave the player alone)

Due to the confusion from too many genres of music, we have decided to put both country music and rap music into the genre of Crap music.

While that may be a legitimate option, it isn't one that everyone knows about or would realize. I sure as hell didn't know you could do that specifically by frame.

A little button at the bottom along with the indexed jump to items would be best I would think.

It would really be super awesome if Subsonic actually used tag information -- listing all your files by filenames is not only archaic, but it leads to a significant loss of information, as there are many things out there (and humans, especially) who depend on having the available file information within it's filename. My gf wants all of the music to have it's original album track number in the filename somewhere, but Subsonic doesn't really support that. Also, there are tags for supporting ratings and for supporting lyrics, and for supporting all sorts of other stuff. In some ways, working with Subsonic is like being transported back to 1996.

Just an FYI, but 5.3 added that refresh button on the left pane.
