Dear Beroli

 

Thanks for your feedback. Tomorrow we release a version where the lists are sorted alphabetically by artist. You can also pull down and use the free text filtering? You are on the beta right?

Pardon me, Mr Andersen,

is that then a beta release....or should we all be looking for a new version?

Dear Thomas,

thank you for the fast reply. I just updated just a hour ago,  after I got the message, that a new update is available today. I am now on 1.4.0.11201. Will there be a newer version tomorrow? Maybe its a glitch in the Test-flight message-system or I don‘t find the free-text option you mentioned before.

Thank you again

Beroli

Found hat you meant with the free text filter, but the artists are not in order yet. Looking forward to the upcomming version with the said order by artist. This will be a huge improvement for me.

For my favorite playlist I would prefer to see it in order as of the date of liking the song itself. Now it is ordered alphabetically on song but before e few updates ago it was as I wished. Any change there will be a choice between 3 orders: date / song / artist?

Would be very nice indeed.

Did you test that with another server also - to see, if it is the app that builts the index, or if that comes from the (Twonky) server?

I tested against Synology and native QNAP DLNA service. Sesam does the indexing for both (note: my Synology collection is for test purpose only, so very short, the QNAP one is identical to my Twonky one)

Thanks for testing!

Maybe I should give that app a try - even if it will be difficult to get hold on it....nowhere to find but in the french store, apparently.

On the other hand, maybe that could be an inspiration for the (Bang & Olufsen) app team, because it is there, that I/we need it - not in a seperate app.

The same goes for the Media Center section on the tv’s - we need some kind of alphabetic search there also.

Hi mbolo01,

 

as I wrote, I meant the order of the artists in the „Album Favorites“. The „favorite Artist“ - folder (your screenshot) is showing only the artists you liked in Deezer in general. But if you liked a album only, you won‘t find it in Artists, you need to browse like crazy through all favorite albums - and since there is just a album-title-order it is annoying. I liked the order in the old BeoMusic-App. All favorite albums were sorted by artists. A other order makes no sense in my opinion.

 

 

 

 

 

An example. I usually browse through the liked Albums and decide then, what I want to listen to.

 

Currently I see the „Let it be Album“ under „L“ and think, Beatles would be a good choice, but I decide to listen to a other album from them. Oh, there is a album called  "1 (Remastered)". Lets scroll like hell back to the Top to special characters and I will find it under „1“. Yes, I could choose the free text search, but even for that, I need to scroll back to the top. Maybe I am old fashioned. The current order is bad - nobody would order his vinyls or his business like that. Oh, thats an offer, lets put it under O, thats an sale, lets put it under S, thats an RFP, lets put it under R ..., hope you know what I meant. That would be ridiculous - wouldn‘t be?

 

Cheers Beroli
