Title: Print artist/album lists
Post by: Bill on February 02, 2003, 10:42:06 am

I would like to print a list of artists and albums without tracks that I have in my Media Center 9 database. I would like them sorted by artist. To date I have not found a combination that yields the desired results.

I would like the output to appear either as
(Multiple Artists)
       A Winter's Solstice VI
      Celtic Christmas III
Abba
      Gold-Greatest Hits
or
(Multiple Artists)     A Winters Solstive VI
(Multiple Artists)    Celtic Christmas III
Abba                      Gold-Greatest Hits

I dont want the same album listed multiple times because it has multiple tracks. I tried display a list in which I only showed track 1 for each album but this failed to give me a complete list because not all my albums have a track 1 since I have removed dupicate songs.

Any ideas?

I would like to do the same.  Has this gotten easier since the question was asked 2 years ago?

Not sure about actually printing it out, but the following smartlist will return a single track from each album in the library.

[media type]=audio ~limit=-1,1,[album] ~sort=[album artist (auto)],[album]

Try this one:

Choose File Properties in Action Window
Choose Statistics
Choose Artist / Album
Right click in list and choose Print or Copy to Clipboard

Hope this helps.
