Not Shure if this is a Bug or if this shuld behave like that by Design, but:

"Container.Content(foo)" doesnt have any Effect, if a View is used in MyPlaylist.xml

All which seems to Work is to use the two window Names for specivic Content. This works for separating Songs (Music Content) from Movies and Episodes (VideoContent)
But fails, as soon u would like to show different Infos for Movies and Episodes in a Playlist.
If this shuld act like that by Desing, then i would like to ask: why this Restriction? Wat is Exactly the Intention behinde this? Is there a Intention/Reason?

Regards.

video playlist can contain mixed content. it's possible to add movies, episodes and music videos to a single playlist.
likely because of that, container content is not set.

if you want to display different info, you're limited to using a condition like :
String.IsEqual(ListItem.DBType, movie)

Thanks.

That helped.
