GermanKiwi Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Hi, could someone kindly enlighten me to the difference between the "Albums" and "Albums by Artist" views in the Library? (The latter is hidden by default but can be enabled from List Options in the Library pane).As far as I can tell, both views are identical - I can't see any difference between them in terms of their sort order or the info they display. But there must be some difference or they wouldn't both be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Albums are grouped based on just Album tag. Sometimes, thus, music collection can have multiple same named Albums, Albums by Artist groups albums based also on artist, so two different artists with the same album name get 2 entries in the list.Thanks!

GermanKiwi Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 Ah, okay, that makes sense. So "Albums by Artist" would be the more accurate one to use then. I'm not sure why anyone would want to use the regular "Albums" view then? What advantage is there for that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmp Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 The regular Albums (which is enabled by default) is there, because it uses the same approach as used stock Android library (and thus, other Android media players).Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
