    Disable Shuffle/All Tracks in Album list only

    Hi,

    I noticed there is an option in the config: Show [All Tracks] and [Shuffle Tracks] items
    With this enabled i can go into any artist and either pick an album, play all tracks across all albums or shuffle all tracks. This makes sense and is a very nice feature

    However when this feature is enabled, the same options are given when browsing album names which i dont think makes much sense
    e.g. Albums->B->Lots of albums starting with B, play all tracks/shuffle all tracks across albums starting with B.

    I dont think this feature will be used much in this context so can it be disabled in the albums list or any individual list and not others?

    Best Regards

    Re: Disable Shuffle/All Tracks in Album list only

    I also noticed that the Show [All Tracks] and [Shuffle Tracks] items feature only seems to display on bottom levels of categories when it could be useful at an intermediate level

    E.g.

    Genre*
    +Artist*
    ++Album

    *=no track list

    Gives the option to play all / shuffle only at the album (bottom) level whereas it would be useful at the artist level in this situation. On one day i may want to play all /shuffle Jazz music irrespective of artist whereas on another occasion i may want to play all / shuffle Jazz music by a particular artist.

    Can play all / shuffle be configured in this way?

    EDIT same applies using Year
    e.g.
    Year*
    +Artist*
    ++Album

    I may want to play all music from the 1970's irrespective of artist but having Album at the bottom level prevents this. Conversely i may want to play all / shuffle all tracks from a particular artist in 2007

    EDIT2

    I removed the Album level from both of the categories above and Play All / Shuffle does not appear. Im not sure now where this feature can be implmented but it appears it is not able to be used in any Artist listing.

        Thankyou

        Perhaps a toggle similar to the A-Z and No track list options in Edit Browse Tree. This will allow the user to define at where shuffle/play all is visible at any level of the hierarchy

          We have looked at this, I agree that shuffle tracks makes no sense for \album\a\

          The other request is possible currently through dynamic browsing:

          dynamic browsing>>Genre>>pop>>[jukebox track selection]

          you can even add artist:

          dynamic browsing>>Genre>>pop>>artist>>someartist>>[jukebox track selection]
