ABC button(s) and One Album that I know of is Missing in Browse Album list..??

[Deaf Cat]

Hiya,

Two queeries that I'm in need of help with, please.

I updated to 7.3.2 a couple of days ago, found that when browsing the album list, artist etc. the first letter of a number button, eg. number 2 is ABC, is acted upon, A is acted upon, but the second and third B and C, are ignored no matter how hard I press the buttons, so to get to albums begining with b and c I have to press A and then use the down arrow to scroll through all A albums first to then get to the B's - A right pain!

The second thing I noticed with the new 7.3.2 when looking for a particular album it was not listed..? however, when serching for a track on the album the track is found with the album in the information attached to the track...?? all tracks are there when searched for but the album remains unfound?

Much appreciate any pointers

Oh just tried 7.3.3 same thing?

Many thanks

Just tried on mine and pressing the same # advances the alphabet as you want. I'm running 7.4 and by the way thanks, I never knew it did that. You would have thought I would accidentally found that before now.

Oh! glad I could be of assistance in hepling you with your SB operation
saves a bit of time if it works!

I'll give 7.4 a go, ta.

Mind you today, the ABC etc buttons seemed to work intermittently...not running in an ABC sequence but in an ABABABCABAB sequence..?? confused!

Ahha I also found the missing album its number 1 in the album list when listed alphabetically, when it should be in the C's and not before the 1's...??
It begins with C and it was with the C's before I upgraded...?? confused!

Much appreciate any pointers.

In 7.3.3 is it also working as expected. You should better go with this version which is almost stable.

I noticed that sometimes it would only do the first 2letters. Sometimes all of them. No special rhyme or reason. It is a nice feature that my son knew about but never bothered to tell me.

Cheers,
I'll stick to the current version untill I get sick of it, a then drop back to what I was on before, as that worked for me

Thanks for your input!

Deaf Cat,

If you haven't tried the Lazy Search plugin, I heartily recommend you give it a go. It enables predictive text and makes finding albums, artists and other things a breeze. I would never go back to the regular search function.

[Deaf Cat]

Worth a try, thank you, however, my memory is not brill so browsing is a good way to remember

I understand only too well where you are coming from.

May I also recommend Album Catalog Creator, which is a great aide-memoire for the contents of one's music collection...

Cool

I've often wondered how to print a list out.
