POS is working on it. That is stated in more than one place. Jalla,

If I choose an artist in the artist screen, then choose an album the songs are not sorted by their track number. The same happens if I search for an artist, select that artist and then select a certain album, the songs are not sorted by their track name. Is it supposed to be like that? If so I can't say I like it. When I select an album I prefer to have the album sorted by the track number, not the track name. This is an awesome plug-in btw! Thanks a lot for putting in the effort!

This is definitely not ports issue (since login is detected and accepted). Most likely there's something wrong with server replies. Switching iPhone's Wi-Fi connection off and back on usually helps. I'll keep digging... Cannot say exactly why that connectivity problem exists, it just happens sometimes. This is definitely not ports issue (since login is detected and accepted).

I am able to pair the iphone and see in the console that foobar recognizes my iphone. In the remote app it always says connecting to library but it doesn't load the library. With Itunes this is no problem.

I am experiencing some problems with connection to foobar.
I am able to pair the iphone and see in the console that foobar recognizes my iphone. In the remote app it always says connecting to library but it doesn’t load the library. With Itunes this is no problem.
Here is my console output:
TouchRemote: items added to library: 1878

426 artists in the tree
493 albums in the tree
1816 tracks in the tree

TouchRemote: found device ‘Markuss-iPhone.local.’

Any idea what this could be? As Itunes is able to connect to the iphone via WLAN the ports shouldn’t be a problem or?

I agree with your suggestion and the previous comments, i.e.: Non-latin letters and numbers should come at the end of the list Shortcut letters: what to do with non-latin letters? Maybe a two level process can be implemented: 1. Assign a latin letter whenever possible to the non-latin letter. Example: any of {Ä, Â, À, Å} is mapped to A. This means an artist starting with Å would appear below the shortcut letter A. 2. If a non-latin letter cannot be mapped, put it into the # basket. I think, if you would separate the mapping rules from the code, it would be easy to maintain. You could take the mapping rules from here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin-1_Supplement_Unicode_block How to treat non-letter characters?

"The options are to use navigation letters and let all non-latin characters appear as ‘#’," - I think if they all appear as "#" it would be fine. I definitely think it would be nice to have letters there. My 2 cents, Patrick “Should they prepend latin letters or come after them”
- Non latin letters and numbers should come at the end of the list.

“The options are to use navigation letters and let all non-latin characters appear as ‘#’,”
- I think if they all appear as “#” it would be fine. I definitely think it would be nice to have letters there.

My 2 cents,
Patrick
