Hi,

I'm having problems when trying to show the album/artist info for a specific track. When I right click on a music track it brings up several options including 'Show the album/artist info' however if I click this nothing happens.

If I right click on the folder containing the tracks and select 'Show the album/artist info' it does actually work, but if I perform the same action on a specific music track then it does not work.

Is anybody else having the same issue?

:D

I i have the same issue in shares view.

Then i made an additional test. I changed the view from "Shares" to "Album Artist".
I selected the Artist -> Genre -> Album -> opend the album to see all tracks. Then i selected a track and opend the menu. In this case MP shows the Album / Artis info.

I think it is a problem of Shares / database view.

I just tried. I am unable to see different behaviour between shares view and database artist view.
If the album/artis info is found in one, it is as well with the other view mode. If it isnt found, the results between views stays the same as well. Could be Im not fully understanding what to check.

I am using MP 1.3RC.
Soon MP1.3 will come out. Might give 1.3 a try to see if it is resolved.?

    There are no changes in this area since beta.

    I will check but I think this is by design on shares view. There is a mantis entry to rework the whole artist / album info details as the current implementation is poor

    What I was trying to suggest is to upgrade from MP1.2.3. Not implying 1.3RC>1.3Final makes the difference.
    @ MP1.2. 1/3 Briegel + Screenager see an issue.
    @ MP1.3RC I dont see an issue. (Might be me not looking hard enough.. just trying to help)
