Setting the library view in 'My Music' will cause the library to be used on pinned items as well. Other LMS UI's set the library view on the player, likewise for browse modes. To me, this does not make sense for a controller UI that acess all players. Hence Material's list of browse modes is configurable per instance (i.e. on your phone, laptop, etc.), and does not change when you change players. Likewise, when you select a library view it changes the view that the Material instance uses, regardless of what player you are controlling. This allows different users to be using different library views whilst controlling the same player. So, navigate into 'My Music', choose a library, navigate to the home screen, select an item, and library should be used there as well. A while back I experimented with saving the library ID when pinning an item - so, for instance, you could pin multiple 'Artist' browse modes with different library ID. However, I never made this change to the main codebase. *Material debug:* 1. Launch via http: //SERVER:9000/material/?debug=json 2. Open browser's developer tools 3. Open console tab in developer tools 4.
