Title: Removing albums leaves some problems
Post by: rumackay on November 10, 2012, 09:10:43 AM
I've been going through the library and removing some unused albums and after rebuilding the database (generate not update) the albums no longer appear in the main view but still appear in the more by artist as a "cover not found" where those albums used to be. Am I missing something? Thoughts?

Oh, latest build - 8.0.03

Cheers

Goto C:\Program Files\E-Touch Jukebox 8 and delete the cvr and rec files, then rebuild your library

Thanks Glenn. Just tried that and the "cover not found" images are still there

It pulls them from the artists folder, you need to delete the CVR files from there and rebuild it all.

Ok, that worked - sort of. Now I have none of the album covers where the more by artist used to be. Where do I re-allow that option?

Also, when I click on any of the "by artist/genre/year" buttons an "add all to queue" button pops up on the left and will let me add all tracks on the album to queue (funnily enough) even though the add entire album to queue option on button settings is not selected and I have limited the amount of tracks from one artist to the queue to only 5 tracks.

And to give you even more of a headache - the "by year" function works, sort of. I click on an album and it takes me there no problem but when I look to find the album I just came from it's not there?  ???

Cheers

If you delete the CVR files from the artists folder then you will not be able to see more by artist untily uo re-build the audio library. You can set it to clear the artists, years and genre folders when generating so they will be kept upto date with any changes you have made....

To be honest this is the best way to do things if you have removed albums, cleaned up tags or added new albums.

*edit* Fixed. Need to remember to check the generate artist/year as well as the clear boxes. Works fine now

What about this one:

that is an old legacy button and shouldn't be appearing. How exactly are you making this show up? I'll try and replicate this later and get another beta out if i can fix it.

I can't get this to happen, can anyone else replicate this?

I select an album, then click on any of the "by artist/genre/year" buttons and it pops up

What version are you running? I can't replicate this myself.

Really not sure what is happening then, we need someone else to confirm this as I cannot replicate it at all. I spent an hour with it last night and nothing.

Is there a way to turn that feature ON that I may have inadvertently selected? Are there some settings that may inadvertently cause that to pop up?

If I figure out how, I'll do a video or screen capture of it in action and post it here

Sounds like when viewing an album he is clicking more by Artist, Gerne or Year and then the Add all to Queue button is appearing even though he has it turned off in his options. I cannot get it to do this for me, can you replicate it?

Ok, I figured out how to do a screen capture of what is happening. The other good news is that the add all to queue button is indeed only adding the limit of songs from that artist (I have it set at 5) so that's one less thing to worry about

Maybe you'll see something I have wrong in the settings. Hope this works...

Its doing it with me as well Barry, Is there a way to switch the  more by Artist, Genre or Year  buttons off? Ive tried lookin the button settings but cant see a box to tick,
Also in the video the rumackay has 'set queue to read only', What will this do?
Title: Re: Removing albums leaves some problems
Post by: Barcrest on November 15, 2012, 04:56:17 PM
If the queue is read only then you can't remove songs or move them around in the queue, I am trying to replicate that bug now.

To hide the more by artist, genre, year just turn off quickjumps under general settings track listing options.

Think I have found the bug, it only effected non commercial user i think, try tonights beta and let me know how you get on.

I don't use  E-touch to it full potential,  so I don't see a lot of problems that get reported, I have my juke set up like it would be in a pub, Pick an album, pick a song and sit down, I think the less buttons people have to press then the less problems they'll be.

The new beta looks to have fixed the add all to queue button, cheers  :beer

But something Glenn mentioned in an earlier post - I've got the queue set to read only but I can still use the clear queue and shuffle queue buttons to manage the queue. I never took any notice of that setting before but I'd like to be able to turn those buttons off and according to the setting "set queue to read only" shouldn't it do just that?

Post by: Barcrest on November 16, 2012, 10:06:32 AM
I will take a look at this for you, i think the read only means you cannot move things around in the queue but you are correct it probably should turn those buttons off too.

Did this get fixed?

Would be nice if someone couldn't mess with the queue once tracks have been added.

Coffe gave more insight on this, it seems it does lock the queue down when you set it however when you close and reload the jukebox it acts as though it's unchecked. If you uncheck and recheck the option it works as it should again. So hopefully this will be fixed in the next beta.

Yep, you're right you know.
