Title: Play Doctor
Post by: jmrdc on April 10, 2013, 06:13:34 pm: Hi,
When typing in an artist, Led Zep for instance, but this happens on a lot of artists that show up in my library, but don't show in play doctor. Anything I'm doing wrong or do I need to rescan my library?

Thanks!

Is there any type of spelling difference?

When I type "le", Led Zeppelin is the #4 suggestion. One more letter, so "led", gets it to #1.

Do you think a manual rescan of my library would work?

You may have made changes to the Play Doctor settings which are excluding some artists. Try clicking the options settings next to Play Doctor and choose Reset Settings to Default.

Post by: jmrdc on April 11, 2013, 05:08:19 pm: that didn't work, either. Typing in a bunch of artists - some that I've used before - are not showing up. For example, last week I made a list for The Beatles. They no longer show up. Strangely The Beatles show up in the queue when I made a playlist with The Rolling Stones.

Post by: jmrdc on April 12, 2013, 04:15:36 pm: Somehow it's working now and I can find the artists I previously mentioned; however, I haven't done a thorough check because I'm happy listening to music.

One other odd thing, though - when playing MC through my PWDII none of the artwork shows in the display even though I have artwork for the song. Further, it lists everything as an mp3 when I'm playing aiff files. This could be a problem with the PWDII, but in MC using play doctor it loads all of the songs but the playlist is blank - nothing is shown in MC but the artwork for the current song playing...same thing in JRemote.

thanks!

Post by: jmrdc on May 09, 2013, 07:51:34 pm: As far as I can see, this was a new thread...

So, you can't help at all with this?
