Different orders in UPNP/DLNA

Unread post by nefeli »

Hi,

Now that Madsonic has DLNA support, I think it could be great to make available multiple navigation options to make it more usable with large collections. For example, with mediatomb, an DLNA server with scriptable layouts, I made this structures, and works quite well for me to navigate to my collection on clients:

Root
------
|-- Albums\
| Album1\
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| Album2
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| ...
|
|-- Artists\
| Artist1\
| Album1\
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| Album2\
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| ...
| Artist2\
| Album1\
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| ...
|
|-- Genres\
| Genre1\
| Artist1\
| Album1\
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| Album2\
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| ...
| Artist2\
| Album1\
| Song1
| Song2
| ...
| ...
| Genre2\
| ...

This layout is just a suggestion (of course I would like to have it :-) ) but I think this kind of navigation options are great for large collections.

Regards!
