Provide an option for browsing album titles by genre

(1/1)

fduniho:
One thing I miss from my old MP3 player is the ability to browse albums by genre. When I select a genre in the Rockbox database, it provides me with a list of artists. This is also a useful option to have, but it would be nice to have both. When I select a genre, a few options appear at the top before the list of artists. These are <All tracks> and <Random>. In addition to these, it would be nice to have an <All Albums> option.

Llorean:
Have you looked at the customization options for Tagnavi? I'm pretty sure this is already quite doable if you customize it.

fduniho:
What is Tagnavi?

saratoga:
The system for changing database queries.

fduniho:
I found it and made a small change that provides the same function I had in mind.

I changed this:

"Genre"    -> genre    -> artist -> album -> title = "fmt_title"

To this:

"Genre by Album"    -> genre    -> album -> title = "fmt_title"
"Genre by Artist"    -> genre    -> artist -> album -> title = "fmt_title"
