Hi,

In musiclibrary mode.

I noticed the container.folderpath on occasion has the complete information about the filter used in the album list. The folderpath I see is something like musicdb://albums/18125/etc etc.. xsp?lots of escaped characters.. "Rules" ... "order"... but it looks like a path valid for a content tag. So I wonder..

1. Can we construct a path that has a filter like a xml music node on the fly?
2. Were can we find (complete) information on how to construct the paths?

Thanks,
Also,

3. how do I choose what container gets updated using Container.Update?
I don't see any ID parameter in this function, nor do I see a function that accepts an ID?

Plaese halp..

I can do it using a skin string and $INFO in <content>, but that somehow seems less elegant.
4. Does using a skin.string instead of doing it directly have a negative impact on performance?
