Recently added minimserver update#

I think the best way to handle files that belong to a Group is to always show the complete Group.

I try to keep my file names as near as possible to - track number - track title, so if the track title changes, the file name will typically change also. This makes sense, although I shall need to bear its implications in mind.

This planned new capability is getting ever more interesting.

I am also hoping to do something similar for Recently Played.

My preferred solution is to add a Recently Added choice in the top-level menu to show a fixed number of the most recently added items and albums, sorted with the newest entries first.

I will start work on this when update 43 is released. The need is evident to grayhairs, like me, who in one room, add material to the library, and by the time we get to the music room, can't remember the last six albums added, which nevertheless we'd like to hear.Īt least, I'd appreciate knowing if you (Simon) are still thinking about adding this, or should I move ahead with some patchwork solution of my own, using special tags? I'd be agreeable to requiring the user insert the date added in some specific tag as needed (though last time I tried that in J River MC, it was not nearly as simple as I'd hoped, and involved one set of actions for existing items, and another set for future items). It would be great if MinimServer would/could display recent additions to the library, either by sorting (optionally) in descending order by date added, or by displaying the last N items added, or something equivalent.
