Artist List

The Artist List mode of the left panel lists the artists in the playlist you’re viewing.

The artist list in the left panel

To show it, right-click the side-panel button (the third button in the top-left corner) and choose Artist List.

  • Click an artist to jump to their first album in the playlist. Double-click to play.

  • With the mouse over the list, type a letter to jump to artists starting with it.

  • Go to playing (') also highlights the playing artist in the list.

  • Right-click an artist and choose Filter to New Playlist to make a playlist of just that artist.

  • Right-click › View… to sort the list alphabetically, by popularity or by playtime, to hide thumbnails, or to hide artists with only a few tracks.

Artist pictures are downloaded from last.fm and fanart.tv. If no picture appears, a matching artist probably wasn’t found. Tauon won’t retry those artists until you choose Database… › Reset Image Cache from the main menu.

You can also add your own pictures. Put them in the artist-pictures folder inside Tauon’s data folder, named exactly after the artist, for example Coldplay.jpg or The Killers.png.
