ijams searches

Post by paul hewett »

We have a large library, when typing in an artist's name - from an i-pod, using i-jams search - a message pops up, 'ERROR' The search results were too large. Try narrowing your search'. Example; I tried typing Reba, McEntire and Reba McEntire the same message came up each time. Is there any way around this?

Thanks,

Paul

you apparently have more than 200 "reba mcentire" songs. try narrowing your searching. ie: type MORE search terms

yes,
i have a large library. over 52000, with no duplicates. trying to help customers who use ijams and want to view all of a specific artist songs. other than this not working, ijams works great.

well, there is a secret pref where you an allow arbitrarily large search results lists, just note that they may take longer to transmit
<key>Maximum number of items in web search results list</key>
<integer>200</integer>
you can set it as high as you want
