Band name +44 issues - Fixed v5.06
bbbd - 3-16-2010 at 06:13 AM

I'm having a problem when I import the band "+44". Ejukebox initially imports the album and changes the name to the year of the album as the artist (ie. it lists the band as (2006) )
If I then manually change the artist back to +44 song by song within Ejukebox, when I restart Ejukebox it then correctly shows the artist on the right, but it list no songs for them. It also lists only "44" at the top as the artist, dropping the "+" symbol.

I hope this makes sense, I've provided a screen scape to show you below.

I can provide more information if needed, just let me know what you need.

Thanks for reporting. the + character is mostly reserved so i cannot make it perfect for plus but i managed to make it work when there is a +Artist.
it will now be put UNDER # at the top of the Artist list and clicking it and other +Artists spots will show all the +artist's song's

the limitation is it will also show songs with the artist without the + in it. in your case songs with '44' in them and the song listing's caption text will still show 44 instead of +44 but the songs will at least show up now.

G'day AudioSoft, just letting you know that the +44 issue is broken again in the latest version 5.12 when I upgraded. I even rebuilt the DB, and then as a last test I uninstalled and reinstalled a fresh version of 5.12, with the same results. the Band +44 imports as the year of the Album (2006) and if I manually change the Band name within Ejukebox the songs disappear and no +44 shows up under artists.

you probably just need to refresh the artist list after making the edit
change the first select box at the top of the list

thanks for that, I wasn't aware that changing that option did a refresh of the artist list, very handy.

you provide a great program with great support!
