--- Quote from: HedgeHog on August 11, 2016, 02:50:06 pm ---I've been running MC since version 18 (so just a year prior to your usage).  I never bothered doing much except replacing that awful iTunes.  I was tempted to go Roon/HQPlayer but so much $$$ for a desktop rig.  Perhaps, when I add a pricey DAC to my main system.


Anyway, here's the 3rd line I added in the Thumbnail Text.  Hope its syntax is proper and optimal.

IfElse(
    IsEqual([Channels],2,2), Stereo,
    IsEqual([Channels],5,2), Mutli-Channel: 5.0,
    IsEqual([Channels],6,2), Multi-Channel: 5.1
)

Thanks again to both suggestions!

Works for me. The only change I made was to use "MCH" instead of Multi-Channel which fits a little better if I use smaller thumbnails. Thanks.

I also don't see the utility since you can find what you want so easily with a search.  But hey, who am I to criticize how you want to see your collection laid out?  :)

It's not really a matter of how I'd like things laid out. As it is, I can access all albums, splits or otherwise, by looking at each Artist's albums (I have their half of splits entered as an album.) Speaking, maybe only for myself, I would like if the program recognized a split album and made the whole album available regardless of which Artist on the album I view. I go to Band and the Band/Group split shows as it does under Group. If it is a 3-way split with Act, it would show for all 3.

I'm a metal fan so I own a lot of split albums....

For SACD I usually import the individual dsf's (after SACD extract) into MC. It's easier than handling and tagging the iso.

i would love for MC to respect the ; delimited a little more.  all of my splits are artist1;artist2 - i'd like for them to be easier to work with.
