Artist>Alum view Q from new user - ac16161 - 03-05-2015 13:59

Hi,

Just playing with MinimServer for fest time. Looks very flexible. Am trying to sort out my main index view. I would like to have a view that gives me an option to select artist, and immediately on selecting artist, goes directly to an album view. By default there is an intermediate step where I have to select from albums, items, etc, whereas I'm used to having an Artist>Album view when using Asset or Twonky. How can I configure MinimServer to avoid the extra step? It's not obvious how to configure the sub-levels for the main index groups.

Thanks.

Just found another new user had the same question, can be addressed by setting the listViewAlbums property to a large number. Not as nice as being able to build custom Parent/Child container combinations in Asset, but I may be getting a non-QNAP NAS so investigating how MinimServer compares.
