How to access network share by folder

[Sonosy]

Is it possible to browse a Sonos library share by folder rather than album, artist etc?

The music_library has many get_ functions for artists, album_artists but not apparently for files_in_folder

get_music_library_information has search_types for 'artists', 'album_artists', 'albums', 'genres', 'composers', 'tracks', 'share', 'sonos_playlists', and 'playlists' but nothing for 'files'

I am hopeful it is possible as the Sonos app does it.

Pointers greatly appreciated

Hi,

don't know if this helps, but you can get the music shares by using the 'share' options. 

You then have a physical path which you could read directly for folders or files.

Can't see how to do that otherwise.

Hi

Thanks for the pointers

I've found out how to do it but it needs a minor change to the music_library module

How do I get this info fed back to the developers?
