Does not work in MC 20 either.

[Matt]

Could you restate the problem?  Assume I'm five years old.

If you have an Expression to group by that results in an Unassigned value (for example, an empty Field), regardless of what Expression to display should output, it only displays Unassigned.

Really?  I consider this a bug.  This is how you fix your customers issues, by taunting them?

Are you in Standard View or Theater View?  How exactly do you set it up?

[connersw]

The problem is the same in Standard View and Theater View as well as Gizmo/WebGizmo.  Haven't checked DLNA server, but I assume it is there as well.

Don't take it personally.  It was for the five-year-old.

Jim was actually replying to Matt's comment "assume I'm 5 years old." He posted a picture earlier after another one of Matt's posts, too.

Matt - here is how he set it up (from another thread):

I have added Description sub-category to all my Audio Views to differentiate multiple versions of the same Album.  I fill in Description for Vinyl rips, SACDs, etc, but leave it blank for Redbook CDs.

In Theater View, I use an Expression:

Expression to group by
[Description]

Expression to display
Code:
>[Album]<//b>ifelse(!isempty([Description]), : >[Description]<//i>)
[Album Artist (auto)]

This allows the Redbook CD's to be sorted last (Unassigned), but still displayed the Album and Album Artist info.  I just noticed it is no longer displaying Album and Album Artist info but rather just displaying Unassigned for these Albums.  I could have sworn that it worked before.

Could you step me through how to reproduce it?  Step-by-step if you would.

[connersw]

See the attached Images.  The first one shows the set up.

In the second one, based on the Expression to display, under the far right Album it should read "Genius Loves Company Ray Charles."  Instead, it just reads Unassigned.

But it does show "Genius Loves Company" in the screenshot.

Huh?

[connersw]

No, it does not. The screen shot shows different versions of the same Album.

The left one shows "Genius Loves Company: SACD Ray Charles" because the Description Field of that Album has SACD in it.  The right one is the Red Book version that has the Description Field empty. It reads "Unassigned."

An Unassigned value in Expression to group by over-rides the Expression to display.
