Title: Feature Request: Find tracks by artist
Post by: fatt_fill on July 19, 2004, 10:06:57 am

I would find it useful to be able to right click on a track in playing now, and have the option to "find more tracks by this artist", so that if I like a particular track, I can easily find more of their material.  This could use the existing search function, as you normally search the library - but would just be a sort of nifty shortcut.

Comments?

Have you tried right clicking and choosing Locate/Artist? That finds all tracks by that artist in your library.

Oh...the joys of NetRemote  :)

My NR interface can do this.  I have a single button that will display all tracks by the currently playing artist allowing you to play, add as next or add to end all or individual tracks in the list.  There is a further button to filter the list by tracks rated 3 or higher.  Similar to the 'tracks by artist' button I have single buttons that will:

..display all albums by the currently playing artist with option to drill down into each one
..display all tracks on the currently playing album

Using NR I can make my playback interface for MC do pretty much anything I want.  :)
