Only see partial list of audiobooks with a large collection

Open janssenjones opened this issue 5 months ago • 9 comments

I have a lot of audiobooks, and when going to the library view, it only shows books for authors A through D. Therefore, I can only find most of my books by going through search or browsing the authors. There doesn't appear to be a way to browse the collection through any view except the authors view. I suppose this could be worked around with the "Collections" or "Playlist" support, but some way of just having multiple pages or a longer scroll would also be great.

I have found that the library will keep scrolling but you need to scroll then wait for it to load more books. Then you can scroll again. You need to keep doing this over and over to scroll through a large library. I do find this is not a pleasant experience. I created some collection and playlists through the web interface from my computer but like you have mentioned there currently is not support for these in ShelfPlayer. That would be an excellent enhancement.

Based on the latest code, collections are on their way, but I can echo that if you scroll down it keeps loading. Once you’ve done it once, it’s much, much quicker though.

Maybe it's a me problem, but I'm positive that mine doesn't scroll beyond the alphabetical letter D in my collection, which is at about 55 books. I've tried many times, and have the screen open right now. Maybe there's a "bad book" or something that's breaking the UI. I can try clearing my library and adding things back to see if I can root cause, but I definitely can only see a small percentage of my collection.

Unless you’re running the latest build, might be worth the wait, working for me with the latest code.

Nope seeing that as well with latest TestFlight. image

If I set the sort to Author it stops at C but if I set the sort by book name I'm able to keep scrolling after the books load. image

I am seeing the same issue and mine stops at the beginning of the letter B.

@gh0sti can you share a debug log file exported after the list stopped loading?

Just sent an email with the logs
