View Full Version : Option to hide compilation artists
There's a setting hidecompilationartists in the advancedsettings.xml which filters compilation artists in the artists listing. It would be nice if there would be an additional option to also filter them in the sub-artistlist of the genre listing.
I don't think this is possible currently, is it?
Perhaps some other users also hate compilationartists... ;)
you are correct. the "hidecompilation" artists only removes them from the root artists listing. if you start at genres, compilation artists are displayed. it's easy enough to always hide them but do we really need another advanced option? i personally like seeing the compilation artists when first filtering by genre as it gives me some new artists to explore. and if they are hidden, it could make compilation songs inaccessible when entering from genres. (i guess they could all be lumped together under "various artists" or something but that may be a PITA to implement.)

Personally that one existing advanced option would be enough for me, if it would also filter the artists in the genre-listing. but some users might want to keep the artists there, like kraqh3d wrote.
I'll submit a feature request in trac, thank you for the hint Gamester17.
