The expression engine doesn't have the set of files as part of its context.  In other words, it works a file at a time.

However, the caller (the Theater View list) could set some variables like:
[AllSameSeries], [AllSameSeason], etc.

Can we also get an [AllSameArtist] variable set, for using with mixed sets of music?

That would be great. It would help for more advanced Playing Now captions as well.

Next build:
Changed: Added variable [AllSameArtist] that can be used in a Theater View caption expression.

Also, this whole thing was your idea.  It solved a problem in a neat way, so thanks!

I really, really like the new captions.

It took me a while to get it set up this Weekend, but now that I have, I'm very pleased.  I delayed updating past the "we're going to reset your file info panels" build because the Wife would scream if they got reset without me having a fix immediately, and I knew it'd take some work.

I really only tweaked the captions you used as presets, mostly leaving them as-is, and re-implemented my original File Info setup.  I need to do more thinking about what is going to be optimal though, as the new system is so much more powerful and capable.  However, all-in-all the defaults are pretty darn good, and I really like the system (it looks nice too and fits in with Theater View very well).

Awesome job all around.

PS.  Thanks.  I'll be adding that in tonight.
