[QUOTE="datja, post: 520130, member: 47325"] Nice replies from y'all! marvenius, thank you for pointing me to that thread. I will post my thoughts there as well. (I searched for that kind of thread without luck for some time.) I realise that my suggestion in a way is off topic from the TVSeries plugin. However, I have fantasies that a kind TVSeries developer would pick up my thoughts and cook up an "artistplayer" reasonably painlessly and fast, using the TVSeries-programming skeleton. quixote23, I believe you and I have similar My Music setups, and it works, but without the fireworks you get from TVSeries. Of course, using ID3tags is not out of the question. (My collection is VERY anally tagged throughout.) But I think the folder-based solution is superior simply because of its simplicity. My own collection is based on file structure, because I get what I expect. Let's say there's an album where the albumartist shares credits with another guy on the last song: tag-based systems will then have problems, but the folder-based system is too simple to be bothered by it. I also use folder.jpgs as you, but wouldn't it be nice if "AP" could fetch huge fanart backdrops which could be randomly cycled according to your tastes. ID3tags would still find a lot of uses with the "AP" system, since tags can provide extra information, lyrics for example. tourettes, No matter how I tinker with the views in MP, I am unable to have (for example) the info about the artist popping when going through a list of artist names.
