<-------------------------Subsonic Help Request---------------------->
Problem Description: (Albums with Subfolder should be displayed correctly)
Subsonic Version: (Subsonic 4.x =< Build 2798 & 4.6 Final too)
Server Version: (jetty-6.1.x, java 1.6.0_31)
Hardware Platform: (Windows 7 64bit)
<-------------------------Subsonic Help Request---------------------->


I want to use Albums with Subfolders, for this i use for my Media Libary following Structures

Code: Select all
1** \Music\<Interpret>\[<Year>] <Album>\<Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix>
2** \Music\<Interpret>\[<Year>] <Album>\Disk#:<Number>\<Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix>

Example Result:

Code: Select all
1** C:\Music\Adele\[2011] 21 (18 Track Edition)\01 Adele - Rolling In The Deep.mp3
2** C:\Music\Adele\[2008] 19 (Deluxe Edition)\Disk1\01 Adele - Daydreams.mp3


If i make a Artistsearch, Subsonic find and display only Album 1** and only tracks from Album 2**.
I want to automatic detect and display also Album 2** correct with cover from Subfolder Disk1 or Disk2.

Workaround for displaying right: put Cover.png into the Album folder (But this should work automatically!)

How could this be done ?

best regards

i tested all last builds (2700-2831) of subsonic 4.7 beta1 but all have a important feature lost!

With Subsonic 4.6 all Diretorys are right displayed with the Filter (ex. Cover.png) from Generall Settings.

*) Does this Artist Coverart feature come back with later 4.7 builds ?
*) could the new Album Schema extendend with the Genre-ID Tag (Sub mediafile scanner for genre) ?
*) AlbumSet Support

Example:
Code: Select all
\Music\<Interpret>\[<Year>] <AlbumSet>\<Disk#:<Number>\<Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix>


Real:
Code: Select all
C:\Music - Genre\#Pop#\Adele\[2008] 19 (Deluxe Edition)\Disk1\01 Adele - Daydreams.mp3



Code: Select all
1 <Interpret> "Adele" --> Artist --> Artist Coverart
2 <Year> "2008" --> Artist -> Album (tag)
3 <AlbumSet> "19 (Deluxe Edition)" --> artist Album (Tag)
4 <Disk#:<Number> "Disk1" --> AlbumSet -Set1
5 <Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix> "01 Adele - Daydreams.mp3" -> AlbumSet -Set1 - TAGS**
5 <Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix> "02 Adele - Best For Last.mp3" -> AlbumSet -Set1 - TAGS**
5 <Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix> "03 Adele - Chasing Pavements.mp3" -> AlbumSet -Set1 - TAGS**
...
6 <Disk#:<Number> "Disk2" --> AlbumSet -Set2
7 <Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix> "01 Adele - Chasing Pavements.mp3" -> AlbumSet -Set2 - TAGS**
7 <Song#:2> <Interpret> - <Title>.<suffix> "02 Adele - Melt My Heart To Stone.mp3" -> AlbumSet -Set2 - TAGS**

TAGS** (Genre, Album, Year, Artist, Title, Track, Disk, Rating)

I'm seeing this problem and the fact that file names are no longer used to sort the files. In general, 4.7 is having major usability problems for me.

I filed a feature request for the sort by files here : https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=d ... tid=705135
