While browsing in Subsonic, page will refresh to Random

[dhilberg]

First off, I apologize if this has been asked elsewhere. I have searched and didn't find anything similar.

While browsing albums in the Subsonic Web client, occasionally the page will refresh and I will be directed back to the Random album (home) screen. This can be incredibly frustrating, especially--for example--when you are in the middle of creating a playlist and have to re-navigate back to where you were and re-select the songs you had chosen.

Is there a way to disable this "feature"?

I have looked and been unable to find a setting related to this, unless I am completely missing it.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Excellent, thanks so much!

I need to work on my search-fu apparently.

The other option is to leave it as is, and when it happens to switch on you when you don't want it to, right click in that pane and choose "back."

I frequently use this feature when updating tags and art for "recently added" albums... I click on the recently added link, select the first album with no art, click the "Change Art" link and select the art. Then, instead of using the "back" links on the Choose Album Art page, I right click and choose back, and then right click and choose back again, and I am back at the "recently Added" list in the same location I was before.

HTH,

Glenn

Thanks for the suggestion. But I ended up just commenting out that line in the main.jsp file as suggested in the link above. I also commented out the similar refresh line in home.jsp to prevent the automatic reloading of the random page. I can click the "more" link if I want to refresh it manually. It's much better now.

BTW, awesome library! Wow.
