There is:
- shallowgenres (Genre Albums) which provides a menu structure like
<Genre>/<Album>/<Track>, typically used if you like genre browsing in
a limited library and want to select album directly after selecting
genre. I think LMS core forces you to select both an artist and genre
before albums are listed but in at least iPeng there is an All Albums
item after selecting the genre which can be used to not have to select
an artist. By limiting shallowgenres based menu to classical music you
effectively have a way to browse one level sub genres within classical
music.
- subgenres (Genres/Sub Genres) which provides a menu structure like
<Genre>/<Genre>/<Artist>/<Album>/<Track>, typically used in a really
large library where you have spent extensive time to tag your music with
multiple genre levels. In standard LMS core you would have to flatten
you genre tags so you combine main genre and sub genre into one genre
tag separated with space or similar. The standard LMS way of doing it is
more likely to work in other software, but is only useful if you have a
strict hierarchy of genres. If you dont know if you like to select the
main genre or sub genre first you will need something like the subgenres
menu in Custom Browse. In the Custom Browse menu you can specify which
genres you like to see on the first level, which is useful if you have a
strict hierarchy.
There are more genre templates than these but I think the above are the
ones thats most different compared to LMS core.
