Asset R5.2beta - Compilations

[JSouthon]

I've just installed Asset UPnP R5.2 beta, to fix the Compilations problem.

I now have a Container called "Compilations", as expected.

Within the "Compilations" container, there is a single folder called "Yes". This really confused me, as I have an album by Yes in my library!

By trial and error, I have deduced the following:

- I have to tick "no track listing" against the "Compilations" container, otherwise it shows every single track (plus of course the "Yes" folder)

- I have to add a child container "Albums" to see each of my compilation albums

- In order to see those albums, I have to open the "Yes" folder, which is confusing.

---

I think the "Compilations" container should function exactly like the "Albums" container, with the restriction that the <compilation> tag is set to 1.

If that were the case, I would click on the Compilations container and see each of my compilation albums, which is surely what everyone would expect?

Compilations have always worked like this, the Yes item needs to be selected to browse the items within a compilation.

The default tree contains a compilation (under advanced search) item correctly set with Albums.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Even the default tree "Compilation" item has the "Yes" item underneath.

I understand that compilations "have always worked like this", but it's just not right. I can live with it, simply by clicking on "Yes", but I'd rather Asset were updated.
