Music Library Sort on Artist + Title

[radiodungog]

Dmitry,

I was playing with the Music Library feature the other day and it's a super useful feature.

RadioBOSS > Tools > Music Library

It's possible to re-order the sort order by clicking on a column heading - but only one column at a time.

Is it possible to add a feature to sort on two columns ?  So Artist + Title  sorted at the same time ...


Thanks, Jamie C.

Yes, this will be possible to add. I assigned it to the next version (4.8.2).

Dmitry,

Another music library question.  We have a HUGE music library and the music library database (xml file) is > 60 MB in size.

Is this a problem ?  Did you anticipate the file getting this big ?


Thanks, Jamie C.

Yes, it was tested on even bigger files.

The only thing file size affects is speed: Music Library startup, Search, generating a playlist.
(60 Mb .xml library with around 200,000 track records loads in 2 seconds)

Dmitry,

Great, okay ... I also found that one of the presenters loaded the xml file onto the LAN NAS where all the music files are stored.  That made it a bit slower too.  So now the new procedure is to back it up on the NAS but operate it of the local HDD on the PC running RadioBOSS.


Thanks, Jamie C.

Well, on 100 Mbit network 60Mb file transfer will take about 6 seconds... Another solution is to use faster 1Gbit network.
