Question Song Book Repeats help!

I am creating a songbook with just artist and song. Since the book will not have any disk id or numbers on it, it does not make sense to repeat artist songs. For example I may have Elton John's "Daniel" on 4 brands of discs. I do not want to see:

Elton John
Daniel
Daniel
Daniel
Daniel
It is a waste of paper and serves no purpose. Is there a way that it could skip to the next song if it sees the same artist and title regardless of the brand of disk?

I believe you have to find the duplicates yourself & check "Hide in Songbook" for those songs you do not want to show. You could suggest this as a New Feature when doing the Songbook in this fashion.

After you search, how do you differentiate which selection you are adding to playlist? Skybird is correct on how to workaround your printing need... but it is time consuming! (The First Time) I have done this for my songbook... but I leave the I.D. and Manu info printed, so I have a double-check method, if file gets corrupted, and I have to refresh the database, or make changes when replacing inferior selections with improved cdg's or better downloads... some of us added song kma's when disks might have been in poor condition, due to handling or buying used cdg's back in the day... Hoster has always done a good job in overlooking flaws, and glitches, when transferring to hard drive... but now if you can improve some of those imperfect files with newer or better versions, your going to find marking your best version, or deleting all the others might suit your needs better! imo
