How to force file names instead of tags in folder category?

Post by Tim » Tue Aug 11, 2009 9:37 am

Dear Community,

When defining a navtree (in Twonky 4) I use the category "folder" to browse my collection like a directory structure. Unfortunately, Twonky does not display file names when it finds tags in a file. Instead tags are displayed. That would be OK in any other category, but not here. How can I force Twonky to display file names instead of tags? How can I achieve "total tag blindness" in the folder view?

Contacted support but got no answer.

Thanks for any help in advance
Tim

Bump.

Got answers from the support but they were pretty generic.
Problem still unsolved.

Cheers

Tech Support finally told me it wasn't possible to display file names (due to DLNA/UPNP restrictions).
I'm now looking for a workaround.
I'm planning on copying the file names to either "Composer" or "Album Artist" fields.
Then I'll define a new node for "Composer" or "Album Artist".
Hope this will work.

Cheers
Tim
