[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 145713, member: 49539"] After a bit of experimentation, it seems to me that the expressions "view" and "sort" are a bit ambiguous. The "views" are controlling how things are grouped for navigation (kind of a sorting thing), and the "sorts" are controlling which fields get displayed (more of a viewing thing). To answer my own earlier question, the multi-level views seem to perform better, presumably because there is less to sort at one time. The worst performance is the "songs" view, where all 20,000 + titles have to be sorted at once. I still don't understand the square braces, or the function of the setting "Scan albums for Various Artists".:S [/QUOTE]
