Support for album artist view? #14

When viewing my music, I have a list of 700+ "artists" to scroll through. In reality, this is only a few hundred artists with a new entry for every feature, producer, etc that is credited.

In the Jellyfin web app, I always sort by "album artist" so I just get a list of actual artists. Can I do that here?

It's not currently possible, but it's planned. As a workaround you might have luck using the Folders view.

Good to know!

Hey! Turns out there was a bug in how jftui handled Artist fields: basically, it was using the Artists field (or more precisely, the last entry in the Artists array) to drive a query on the AlbumArtist field. Oops.

Commit 4317b8a264f24d5fb90078de9d91cdb79a06e538 may have had the side effect of helping out your case since for now jftui uses AlbumArtist universally :)
