It appeared then, among other things, that Damien designed the library management without studying first what are the conventions that MusicBrainz and Discogs apply for the separation of multi artists and multi composers of an album. The name of the first artist that is displayed starts with “K”, then comes “M”, followed by “R” and “2”, and only then come the artists whose name starts w… This is a screenshot of the “Artist view” of the library. I set the filter that sorts my music in the library to “Albums Artist”.ĭespite my setting, AS is unable to sort the artists in the library in alphabetical order. If you wish to discuss further I would suggest a PM, here is not really the place to sing the praises of another competing productĪS does not know to sort metadata Library Manager try AS, I use only a few dozens of albums of my music collection.

These are features I can’t see how to reproduce in Audirvana (yet I suppose). Pretty much if you can think of it you can do it. Think a way of splitting Rock from Classical for example, a simple rule contains ‘Classical’ does it easily, you can even predefine shortened lists for say top 20 Composers. Then your Remote then is your predefined view of your library. The key to MC is the flexibility and configurability of its views - YOU define how it looks, its easy to use once you know how. (as above JRemote, mConnect, StreamMagic etc) To actually LISTEN I use a series of iOS or Android apps which present a far prettier look and feel.

I agree the UI of MC itself is old school but I use it only for file and library maintenance on a big noisy desktop, in a study far away from where I listen (that’s what networks are for ).
