New to group.
Have had my Rio Receiver 'bout 6 mos.
I'm in the process of ripping cd's into my computer via Windows Media Player. I got through my Jazz collection and have started Pop/Rock when I noticed that the song list under the Jazz genre list on the Rio only includes artists starting with the letters A-D. The other songs & artists show up under all music list though. It's frustrating because I'd like to shuffle through ALL of my Jazz music. Any ideas?

Thanks!
Kevin

I believe you're running into the problem covered in this FAQ entry.

Not quite, but close. Non-clustered indexes in the database file only support 500 (or was it 250?) leaf entries.

So there .

In English, this means that: genre/artist/album (non-clustered indexes), as opposed to FID (which is a clustered index) only support 500 (or was it 250?) leaf entries -- i.e. the entry for 'Jazz' only has space for 500 (or was it 250?) tracks.

You're right that it's a database limitation, but it's not strictly dependent on the size of the collection, more by the mix of stuff in it.

My bad. That particular piece of code was written at about 11:30pm on a Thursday.

Thanks for the reply!
So I gather the solution would be to break down my genre lists into smaller pieces (<=250 or was it <=500?) ie Jazz1, Jazz2, etc. Is there a limit on the total number songs the receiver can handle? I've got about 250 cd's ripped so far with another 500 to go.

Yeah, you could do that. There is a limit to the total number of songs supported by the server -- it's about 11,000. The receiver, however, is limited by the memory required to render the menus and running order. This limit is lower.

Another alternative is to try one of the alternate servers. They're harder to set up (although I think this is better now), and generally provide more features.
