    What do you mean by "grouped by artist"?
    in the artist view you have all songs/albums of an artist grouped together and the artist is displayed only once.
    the grouping is there to group rows starting with similar characters.
    for example to group all artists based on the first char, you would specify RESTRICTION -> 1
    then you end up with a display of "A" (with all artists starting with letter "A"), "B" (all B artists), etc.
    when you specify retriction -> 2 then the grouping is done on the first 2 chars

    I mean a view where are ALL Artist grouped.

    I go into the view Artist and see for example:

    Die Fantastischen Vier
    HIM
    Rammstein
    Max Mutzke
    ...


    When i select the view artist i get an abc index and after selecting an character i get the list i want.
    But i do not want the abc index in front.

    if you use the standard view you have:

    1. ABC Index
    2. All artists with A, if you selected A from the ABC index
    3. All Albums from AC/DC, if you selected AC/DC on 2 above
    4. All songs of the AC/DC album selected.

    So you have the grouping based on Artist.
    if you don't like th ABC list in the beginning, just edit the view and remove the grouping.
