Hi Erland,
Thanks for these answers... never seen such a good customer service
;).
You are right that I assumed that the headers I was loooking for in
dynamic tags menu would be headers of the currently selected set of
albums (only the music matching the subset of dynamic tags), not only

I'm not sure it's the best topic to post this question about, but as

If any of you classical music listeners is interested in trying out the

some feedback.
The thing I would like feedback on is a new Dynamic Tag menu template

Your answers sound promising. I previously understand the hint that non

explanation that on pressing play all items in the menu below will be

A single movement of a work is usually one track.
I've got some more information and the main reason to have the movement

As an example, lets say we have the menu:

I prefer to split classical CDs into virtual albums so that I use the

I'm glad to see that you are making the effort to document using your
plug-in for browsing classical music. I've responded to your immediate
request for comment and added other more general thoughts.
Thanks to your help I have what I need in a very straightforward manner
though no doubt it could be further enhanced.
I use the composer, artist, title, album and track number tags only but
how they are used does depend on the type of piece.
For a multi-part work, eg. a symphony or sonata, then
Perhaps I should have also said that I use the SB3 menus almost
exclusively - I don't have a PC in the room with the hi-fi.So I don't

Erland,
I've actually stopped using custom browse. What I would like is
something that allowed me to choose the tags in a pretty random order -
hierarchical systems don't match my thought/browse patterns.
For example, I like the dabs system - see www.dabs.com - where you can
select Storage

sample that setup something like this:

Is there anyone that have a good example how you use Custom Browse and

The reason for my question is that I feel that it would be good have an
example of how to setup this on my wiki, but at the moment my experience
