Music - Play Album? Collection?


Chuck

Recommended Posts

Working with the Music plug in, it seems that there is only an option to play individual tracks as opposed to complete albums.  Also, what about play lists?

 

Am I missing something?

What Music Plugin?  There is no music plug-in...

 

Multiple item playback is handled just like everything else - hit your play button on an album and it will give you options to play all, or shuffle.

I am using MBT and tried pushing the Play button on my remote on an album.

MBT threw an error with a popup and I had to get my mouse to close the popup.

 

So far, only way I can play music is to click on single song and play it.

I would imagine in time that playlists would be supported.

 

Was also curious if lossless formats would be supported as 95% of my music is flac.

Thanks, I'll have a read.

 

I'm using Server Version 3.0.5070.20258, Client Version 3.0.96.0 B11-19.1

 

I'm also using the Nero theme.

 

It seems that there's not an option to play an album, but only individual tracks.

 

I also don't see an option for grabbing a predefined play list.

 

But, maybe I'll see it in the article mentioned above.

 

Thanks again!

Sorry to argue with you... but there is no Nero theme for MBT (Media Browser Theater) and the client version number you give is for MBC. (Media Browser Classic). So looks like EBR might have to move your post again. :D

If you're talking about Neo on MBC, there is a 'Play All' function. Just press the 'Play' button on the remote on the album you want to play. Or using the asterisk on your remote to bring up the context menu. Please see this guide: Viewing your Media Collection

I think (if I remember correctly) that when you browse to an album in MBC you can then push ctrl+P and it will start playing the album.

But till no playlist function on any clients :(

 

No because that is a big piece of work that needs to be done on the server end.  We don't want piecemeal support here - we want true playlists for anything.  So, it will just have to wait until we get through other basic functionality.

This is the only option for me. Using Chocolate theme in WMC.

There is no play all option for an album without Ctrl-P. It gives me the option to Play All, Queue All, or Play Random.

Found out it does work the same as the play button on the remote.
