I've uploaded a couple of 8-tracks, and used the sectionbreak feature to highlight the running order like this.

Also did a "side 1" and "side 2" on a cassette listing.

Is this a good idea? Or should they just be listed continuously, regarless of the tracks/sides?

Looks great to me the only problem is I feel I should go back over the tapes I've already done to bring them up to the new standard your're setting. :sad:

I've got the same thing nagging in my own head!

To be honest, I don't expect all users will do this. I think most tapes will continued just to have a list of tracks without breaks, but I'll make a habit of doing it when I add new ones, if the general view is positive.

What would be even better would be a magic button you could press for "sub-heading", so they could be dropped in easier.

I like this as well. I'll go back and edit the cartridges that I've added so far (not so many), at least those that specifically delineate the 'programs'.

Is this a Mod-only feature? Tried to update my only sub, did not find any option to do this.

Hi janiejjones, Sorry but at present only mods can edit entries. Though if you want any editing done let me or another mod know via the "Make Correction" features. Cheers.

It can be done ongoing, when new items are added. Existing entries (as said) would require a mod to go in and alter what's on-screen, which can be done on request.

Thanks, not much coming from me for the time being, my lonely sub will get it's "correction" request in due time. Hope I manage for future additions (not many, this never was amongst my favourite media :laugh: )

I've just gone ahead and done it, plus the linked versions. Two more chalked off.
