As you have noted the playlist menus aren't browsable.
I'm not sure exacly how you like it to work and look like, but here is
some ideas.
This will make sure the menu only is shown when the library 7 is
active.
<includedlibraries>7</includedlibraries>
But I'm guessing that you just want to move the menu inside of a
specific library, that can be done by adding something like:
<menugroup>Libraries/Podcasts</menugroup>
So if you like the menu to be shown as a top menu but only be visible
when library 7 is active (I'm guessing library 7 is your podcasts
library), you would need to do:
Code:
--------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<custombrowse>
<minslimserverversion>6.5</minslimserverversion>
<menu>
<includedlibraries>7</includedlibraries>
<menuname>Latest</menuname>
<menuorder>50</menuorder>
<menu>
<id>track</id>
<itemtype>track</itemtype>
<itemformat>track</itemformat>
<playtype>all</playtype>
<menutype>sql</menutype>
<menudata>
select tracks.id,tracks.title from
tracks,multilibrary_track
where
tracks.id=multilibrary_track.track and
multilibrary_track.library=7 and
tracks.audio=1
order by tracks.timestamp desc
</menudata>
<menu>
<id>trackdetails</id>
<menutype>trackdetails</menutype>
<menudata>track</menudata>
</menu>
</menu>
</menu>
</custombrowse>
--------------------
Or if you instead want the menu to show up inside "Libraries/Podcasts"
you would do:
Code:
--------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<custombrowse>
<minslimserverversion>6.5</minslimserverversion>
<menu>
<menugroup>Libraries/Podcasts</menugroup>
<menuname>Latest</menuname>
<menuorder>50</menuorder>
<menu>
<id>track</id>
<itemtype>track</itemtype>
<itemformat>track</itemformat>
<playtype>all</playtype>
<menutype>sql</menutype>
<menudata>
select tracks.id,tracks.title from
tracks,multilibrary_track
where
tracks.id=multilibrary_track.track and
multilibrary_track.library=7 and
tracks.audio=1
order by tracks.timestamp desc
</menudata>
<menu>
<id>trackdetails</id>
<menutype>trackdetails</menutype>
<menudata>track</menudata>
</menu>
</menu>
</menu>
</custombrowse>
--------------------
The menu format is described in the Custom Browse section on my wiki if
you are interested in all the details.
Anyway, I'll try to provide a template based "New Songs" menu in the
next Custom Browse release. Hopefully within the next day or so.
