In the case of the panes approach, I think that Foobar does it quite well. Each filter has an "all" option. This means that, for example, if I set up 3 filters: composer, opus(work), album and want a work by a particular composer then I can see what album(s) it is on; then if I select that album and select "all works", it gives me all that composer's works on the album; if I select "all composers" it gives me everything on the album (assuming this is a compilation album). Muso currently operates differently in that in every case the item filtered is the album, not the collection of tracks; this is less flexible (although arguably simpler), but it is worth noting that without this flexibility, the full benefit of the panes approach cannot be realised. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MDE's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=49291 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=91575 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
