Hi there,
I was quite happy reading in the changelog that you have implemented the "find from same composer" that quickly. Installing the new version 2117 i got a somehow strange behaviour of the MM 5
.
I took a track from the entire list (in Track view), clicked on it and chosed "find more from same composer". It was Johann Sebastian Bach by the way. Then the middle part of the program window changed. In the upper part there was the wikipedia entry for the composer (in english) and below a handful of tracks. there was a link asking "show all 1862 tracks". I clicked on it ....waiting a lot of time (way too long) and then a tracklist view opened with title, artist, album, length , bitrate and path. Bitrate and path weren't filled with information. But what made my jaw bones fall down was the artist field .... ALL entries were filled with the name of the composer. Blood pressure was rising .... fortunately MM 5 did not change the real tag information in the file. Though the properties panel said that (in MM5).
Did the same with a composer with less tracks (Aaron Copland). Only 46 tracks. The track list which appeared (very quickly) had NO artist information and a quite different selection of header entries ... Title, album, rating and length. This time there was all the information for length.
.... your turn now
