Creating a New Music library view
Hi,
This may have been discussed previously in the minimserver forums, but I could not find it. I have been using minimserver for many years now, and on different NAS systems, among others Synology, Netgear etc, and now on one of the recent QNAP ARM NAS systems. After the first few kinks, all installations worked flawlessly. Although I was once a programmer in the dark ages of computing (i.e. I started way before GUI's like Windows and Mac became the norm), I can not come to grips with the innards of minimserver to include some tweaks. I can get it up & running and I'm always impressed with its speed and compatibility with many Android & iOS control point apps. Where other servers fail, minimserver always seems to deliver! There is one feature that I desperately miss though, and that is a "New Music" library view, ultimately accessible in the control point software. The standard views are all there of course, but I don't have a clue as to how to create such a library view (if that's even the right term). An example of this would be the 'New Music' library view in 'My Music' of LMS. It's configurable as to how much items (albums!) it would hold (some 200 would do it) and over how many pages it will be displayed (divided). I attached a screen shot of a friend's LMS system showing the library views. This library view would hold the 200 last added (or edited) albums. It seems to be based on the date & time of the files. They are presented as any other album, so not a collection of separate files, though one can drill down to file level, tag level and properties level etc., just like with any other album view. I have included a second screen shot (called "Inside 'New Music' library view") to display the contents of the "New Music" view. My question is: can such a library view be implemented or added to minimserver? And if so, can anyone provide me with a step-by-step guide or a shell script to do so (remember: Dark Ages!). The best thing for me would obviously be that it would become a standard feature of future releases of minimserver, so that the library view is already there after installation. Cheers, Marco |
