Last night I 'discovered' Erland's excellent Multi Library and Custom Browse plugins. My SB3 experience has been transformed!
At my wife's request I had included her iTunes library (principally because she wanted her playlists accessible), but the big downside was that many of our CDs and tracks were listed twice when browsing - once as the original FLAC file in the main library, and once as the MP3 created for use on an iPod. Worse still, it took a lot of button presses to find which version I was looking at. However, using the Multi Library plugin I was able to include all my best quality files files in my 'Standard Library' (defined as anything on my S: drive) and all the iTunes files in their own 'iTunes Library' (defined as anything on the P: drive). Using the Custom Browse plugin I was able to set things up so that at the top level of 'Browse' I see only 'Music Folder', 'Search', 'Standard Library' and 'iTunes Library', and entering either of the libraries I then get all of the original Browse options. Much simpler, and my wife and I can each find our own files without confusion. -- chill ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=43917 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
