Title: Files/Search?Query with Album Artist (auto) ???
Post by: TomNKY on May 13, 2013, 08:07:51 am
I'm trying to fine tune an MCWS query to assure that when I request tracks for an album, I get the correct album ( more than one album title could be the same ) and when displaying tracks for an album if the Artist Album (auto) is "(Multiple Artists)" then I would want the Album tracks to display track # (the song title) (the song artist taken from each track)

IF the Album Artist field actually was in the files ( extremely rare in my case ) this works

lookup = string.Format("http://{0}:{1}/MCWS/v1/Files/Search?Query=[Album]=[{2}] [Album Artist]=[{3}] ~sort=[Track %23]&Output=mpl", (...etc in C#)

The Search doesn't seem to allow me to use Album Artist (auto).

I think I saw somewhere, use of /Library to get more info back or more options to the searching...
I just need to get the information back , I can do all the other logic in code ( old school here, I tend to use more logic in code than fighting queries to get what I want ;-)
