customize view in flac collection

Post by rick hantz »

I want to show the artist name, then drill down to album, then drill down to tracks in a collection
All the instructions don't seem to exist in the latest version (5) of MM. Menu options don't exist in this version.

The latest version is MediaMonkey 2024 and what instructions are you looking at? For MediaMonkey 2024 see: https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/index. ... lp:Content

Where in MediaMonkey are you 'drilling down'? In the Media Tree, the Column Filter, or in the Filelisting?

I rip all my music to flac, then convert to higher quality mp3 for portable use.
I then created a Collection to just show flac (for home use)
I want a list of just artists, then drill down to albums, then tracks.

I plan on creating a mp3 collection once I get this working.

It sounds like you'd want to enable Show all subnodes.

As for the error, which Build (Help > About) of MediaMonkey did you get this with?

Show all subnodes link doesn't help at all. No idea even where to find that.

UI is not task oriented at all, it just exposes the APIs.
Reminds me of Win31 and Win95.
Help files are only useful if you are already an expert...

Use the ⋮ Menu button in the Media Tree (item 6).
