Thanks for the quick response.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean, but I'll give it a try. Please
let me know if you meant something else.

In the item loop of the response we get e.g. these items which can't be
distinguished except for the album id:

Code:
--------------------
              {
  icon-id: 7cc06c01
  commonParams: {
  album_id: 372
  }
  presetParams: {
  favorites_type: playlist
  icon: music/7cc06c01/cover
  favorites_url: db:album.title=21
  favorites_title: 21
  }
  icon: music/7cc06c01/cover
  text: 21
  Adele
  type: playlist
  textkey: 2
  }
  {
  icon-id: a6b85953
  commonParams: {
  album_id: 4
  }
  presetParams: {
  favorites_type: playlist
  icon: music/a6b85953/cover
  favorites_url: db:album.title=21
  favorites_title: 21
  }
  icon: music/a6b85953/cover
  text: 21
  Adele
  type: playlist
  textkey: 2
  }
  
--------------------


If I get e.g:

Code:
--------------------
    extid: deezer
--------------------

in the json object for an item, I would be able to display an icon of
the music service for the item.
