access to "album artist" files using MM as a media server

Postby pjuegos » Sat Apr 28, 2012 10:07 am

Hi all,

I use media monkey as a media server. However, when I acces media monkey remotely Album Artist and Album have been merged into a single category, which is quite annoying...

Is there any way to just acces to just "album artist" files ?

thanks

When MM server is accessed remotely from my WD Live box, it gives me the option to sort out the music files by Album, location, Artist & Album artists, Composer...
So, the "Artist" and "Album artists" categories are merged together. It would be better if you could sort out your collection by "Artist" and "Album artists" indpendently.
I assume that that is the way MM is presenting the media to its clients accessing the server

cheers

You can enable the Album Artist Tree Node in the Collection (File > Manage Collection) you're sharing.
