JPLAY: UPnP control point for iPhone, iPad and Mac (official thread)

[simoncn]

Welcome to the MinimServer forum!

I'd like to clarify the term "folder view" in your post as this term can be used to refer to two different things.

In MinimServer, the index selection [folder view] shows a browsing hierarchy that exactly matches the file system folder structure on the device running MinimServer. Some users prefer this to the tag-based browsing hierarchy based on file tags such as Artist, Composer, Genre, Date, etc.

In JPLAY, selecting Local Network > By Folder doesn't show the file system folder structure as one might expect from the name. It shows the UPnP server's browsing container hierarchy. For MinimServer, this container hierarchy is tag based by default with the option to browse by file system folder.

It can be confusing that some control points (not only JPLAY) use the term "folder view" to refer to the server's browsing hierarchy, not the file system folder structure. I hope this post will help to clarify this terminology.
