Re: [Banshee-List] Genre view and songbird import

[Michael Martin-Smucker <mlmartin13 gmail com>]

I have a feeling that if you're looking for a Genre column in the browser, you're actually looking for this bug:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=538005

There's a patch there, which might still work if you want a genre column, but I make no promises.  Really, adding a genre column is part of the larger goal to let users pick and choose which criteria show up in the browser.  To follow that progress, CC yourself to:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=540873

If you don't want to build from source just so you can apply a patch that may or may not work, no one would hold it against you.  :)  In the meantime, you can work around the lack of a genre filter by using Banshee's advanced searching options.  Find more here: http://banshee-project.org/support/guide/searching/

Hi Sascha, in the latest 1.5.6 (and indeed, in all the other versions I have used) I'm able to right click on one of the columns and I can select and deselect what I want shown. Genre is among them. Is this what you mean?

Dear all,

is it possible to view in the browser not only album and artist, but also the genre? I also want permanently switch to Banshee but wish to import my ratings etc. from songbird. The option from songbird is available, but I haven't found anything if i could import to Banshee itself.

Thank you for this unique program and your help!

best wishes,
sascha
