Feature: Album view excludes single tracks

[terryo]

Navigation would be much easier if mma could be set to ignore single tracks when the Albums view has been selected. Too much clutter is displayed when the library is like mine with a mix of albums, playlists with albums, and playlists of singles.

Perhaps a view that treats playlists of singles like personal albums and blends them with the artist created albums?

Just my suggestions. I'd be happy with any solution decluttering displays by differentiating between a real album and a the name of an album from which a single originated.

I'd expect any file with Album value to be listed with that Album value in the Album view. No matter if 1 file of the Album is synced, if the Album only has 1 file or multiple files on the Album are synced.

I tend to agree with Lowlander. BUT, it could be useful to set a filter to show e.g. only Albums with > x tracks. Something to think about once the basics are complete...

I recently saw in Mantis that a metadata value for total number of album tracks will eventually be added to MMW. Perhaps once it is implemented MMA could have an option to only show full albums, i.e. albums for which the number of tracks synced = the number of tracks on the album.
