Re: Ability to select a nested sort order for the column views

Oops - Disregard my last post.....My apologies, I forgot to read the help text. However, if somebody is reading this. Here is what it says about sorting. You can also sort by multiple columns to a depth of 6 columns. When you change column, it sub-sorts by what was last sorted so you want to click o...

Ability to select a nested sort order for the column views

Would it be possible to add a 'Sort by' option to the main views so that it becomes possible to sort your collection on any of the fields?

It would be idea if it's possible to have more than one sort criteria. Eg, By Artist, By Year, Album Title etc etc.



Cheers

Re: CDPedia - Some questions

Hi PascalB, I think there may be a bug in the system in that it doesn't allow you to edit multiple entries using the right-click context menu. However, this doesn't completely foil your plans. Highlighting multipe entries and using "Edit CD.." from the context menu does work in the 'Table ...

Both methods are problematic to my way of thinking as you've said. There needs to be a structural change so that each 'entity' in the database can basically represent one of the following sorts of entries: A single CD with multiple tracks A multi-pack comprised of more than 1 CD with many tracks Thi...

This is absolutely what I've been trying to work out. I think the OP is asking how does CDPedia handle multiple discs in an album. I have many albums containing multiple discs (usually 2 or 3), but I don't know how to catalog them. How does CDPedia handle multiple CD sets? Unfortunately, what I end ...

Also to add further, the popup window would need to include at the least, the trackname, composer/artist, track time, and possibly any image. I have struck a number of times where one listing has the tracks in the wrong order, is missing the track durations, or even has the artists listed against th...

Ability to quickly browse through drawer contents in CDPedia

I've been mucking about with the adding new entries and advanced CD editting in CDPedia and am finding the task of editing entries very time consuming due to the way the 'drawer' functions. There needs to be a way to quickly browse through the list of choices that are present to the user when the 's...

Importing Albums and Track details into CDPedia

Hi, I was wondering if there is an easier way to import an existing collection which is currently exported to an Excel worksheet. I see from help text that collections can be imported providing that the track details are delimited by a semi-colon. I have a flat structured file which has been exporte...

Thanks Conor - Wow! that was quick....I wasn't expecting a response quite so quickly being Christmas and all. Thanks for your answer, I'm not too crash hot on programming, but hopefully somebody may make a "batch CDDB2 query" routine - that would be the ultimate for me......was one of the ...

Revisiting CDDB (Gracenote)

Hi, I am new user (as of about 10 minutes ago!) and have done quite a bit of reading on these forums about importing existing collections and also bringing in 'new' data. Like many users, I don't like FreeDB as the quality of data is a little flakey and was wondering whether or not the Gracenote thi...
