mediatomb audio java script

An extension to my previous movie script for mediatomb. This script arranges the audio files in folders indexed by the first char in the artist, title...etc. So in addition to the normal directory structure, you will get sub-folders All, A, B, C, etc... This is useful if you have a large library of music and you are tired of too much scrolling.

mediatomb movie java script

A little script that arranges Mediatomb movies in a directory structure similar to the original location of the file on your HD. The code is an improvement to the excellent tutorial posted here.

// currently no video metadata supported
function addVideo(obj) {
 // define the parent dir
 parent = 'downloads';
 var location = obj.location.split('/');
 chain = new Array();
 isSubPath = false;
   
 // iterate the dirs
 for (i = 0; i < location.length-1; i++){
  if (! isSubPath && location[i] == parent)
   isSubPath = true;
  if(isSubPath)
   chain.push(location[i]);
 }
 addCdsObject(obj, createContainerChain(chain));
}
