Customizing the media library hierarchy

Post by PeterG »

UMS 7.8
Yamaha RXA2050

Is there a way to customize the hierarchy in which music is displayed on the renderer? None of the default options work well for Classical music.
I would like to be able to create custom media selection hierarchies such as : Genre / Composer / Album / Title

No. There is a fork of UMS that allows this, but I don't think it has been updated for almost 2 years: https://github.com/taconaut/ums-mlx

Looks like i would need more programming skills than I have.

The trouble with having to earn a living is it gets in the way of progress.

I'm not sure what programming skills you refer to, but if you meant that you don't know how to build it, there are a link to downloads in the bottom of the readme: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ums-mlx/
