I apologize for what you inferred from my tone. I was just thinking it was funny. No offense intended.

I was a bit unclear when I was trying to write it. I wonder if it would be best if the column header infact said SUMMARY. You wouldn't put Now Playing on the Date column <G>

Why do you think every time I've mentioned this I've been very explicit in making sure you know I am talking about NOW PLAYING. Read the title of this thread. :)

Thanks for that. I will change MMW so it will work correctly until a fix comes through. I like the default of one column for the information.

Thanks again for posting the mantis

Now playing, for me (and probably the default as I haven't changed this on either of my systems), as for columns visible

Now Playing Album Len...

My guess 'Now Playing' is what you mean by summary because as i said it shows 'Artist - Song Name'. It doesn't say summary but ...

Re: Now Playing -> Right Click -> Get Info -> Wikipedia

Do you mean the Summary field with Artist - Song or each of those fields independently?

Re: Now Playing -> Right Click -> Get Info -> Wikipedia

by dtsig » Mon May 13, 2013 9:27 am

This happens, for me, specifically when i right click the Artist - Song. If i do same in album things work well.

And once again this is only in Now Playing

What field are you right clicking on? It matters as Artist should get you the Artists page, Title should get you the Songs page and Album should get you the Albums page.

I don't get any other results than the English Wikipedia pages in both Filelisting and Now Playing. Some matches aren't entirely accurate, but are based on the relevant tag (I got a movie page for one).

Yep, basically the same as you. English, FIreFox 20.x, yada yada yada

Rightclick on Now Playing is where the problem is showing up.
Just tried it on another box. A song by Blue Cheer off their "What Doesn't Kill You" album, called "Born Under a Bad Sign" got me the URL of http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strona_g%C5%82%C3%B3wna

RightClick the same Artist/Album/Song in the primary track listing (center pane details) gave me the URL of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Born_Under ... %28song%29

BIG difference

Are you right clicking in the Now Playing list? Right clicking on the track in the Library viewer works fine. It fails when you do it in the Now Playing list on the right side of the window.
