Both music and video library returns empty FolderNames. FolderPath is empty, too.
Bug or a feature?
(XBMC build 8.10.)

Ok, so what should they return?

Since video files and library were merged and the same thing is planned for music, I thought it should return what I suggested above (it follows the logic: ActivateWindow(Videos,MovieTitles) and I expect it will be similar for Music one day)
Though, I'm fine with Music/Video Library instead if the others think it would be better.

Pieh,
those examples are all fine. What I'm after is
videodb://
musicdb://
add ons://
programs://
Those are empty ATM, and I consider them folders as well
videodb:// - Videos
musicdb:// - Music
add ons:// - Addons
programs:// - Programs
If I'm to use file system terminology:
I'm in ROOT on Home page. Opening add-ons:// takes me to Add-ons folder.
..// ROOT, Home page (not a folder)
../videodb:// (Videos folder)
..//Addons:// (Programs folder)
Currently, XBMC uses multiply roots as it treats Home, add ons://, programs://, videodb://... all as root folders and thus not setting FolderNames.
If this is a feature for some reason I'll accept the fact and won't bother you anymore.
