I’m surprised that… till now there has been no feedback at all about fluency.
maybe no one cares?
On one side, i’m happy of this new feature: for me, it’s quite important to have artists in their native language. In fact, i have edited many artists names in their native language.
Or, in case of different alphabets that i could not read and/or search, i have added the native name to the latin one, for example:
here the first problem.
fluency does not work on artists with edited name. for example, this is an edited name in my library:
while this is non-edited result
in a way… i understand this…
but that means that i’ll have to check all my edited artists (and it would be helfull a focus filter on edited artists…)
the second problem is on language sorting.
the previous result is with these settings:
if i select also deutsch (after english) i get as expected
but if i select deutsch as first language i get:
note: this is not the edited artist. there’s something wrong.
another example. this is a non-edited artist with deutch switched off
if i switch on deutsch after english
the english name has gone, why? english is selected. and i would expect that being selected more languages, sorted, i should see the first 2 languages available
i think that there should be an option to:
-select overall languages to show
-in the sorting scheme, i’d like to have the native name first ALWAYS (so, not a specific language first)
-customise the language for the single artist
One could argue that native alphabets may be preferred if someone knows them, but I guess it depends. A Chinese native may well prefer to see Chinese characters for Chinese names even if some other people in the lineup have native names using the Latin alphabet.
