Sort function?

[eshman]

Hey, it's been a while since I've been here and I was wondering if there might be a way to sort the remixes by genre. This way if I feel like listening to techno, orchestral, samba, or hard rock on any one day I can access them easily...

Sorry if I missed this posted somewhere else btw...

Currently, no. We're working on something more robust than just genres that will eventually be integrated into the actual database. For now though, there's http://ocremix.org/forums/tags.php

Prior to that work, we absolutely refused to classify genres, because most people wanted us to tag the mixes with 1 genre in every file, which is impossible given how many mixes are multiple genres. With a tagging system, we can have as many descriptors as we need and include instruments and moods as well, all without touching the files themselves or changing the Genre tags in the MP3s from Game.

Thanks for the quick response LT, and I can't wait to see when that new feature is integrated.

Playlist-format output? iirc there was an ocrtags site that had that feature, it'd be pretty useful to incorporate that into the database... or to include the tags in the files themselves somewhere, but that means yet another update to the files, right?
