Use a different container as the root of the directory tree presented
to clients. The possible values are:
- "." - standard container
- "B" - "Browse Directory"
- "M" - "Music"
- "P" - "Pictures"
- "V" - "Video"
- Or, you can specify the ObjectID of your desired root container
(eg. 1$F for Music/Playlists)
If you specify "B" and the client device is audio-only then
"Music/Folders" will be used as root.

services.minidlna.loglevel = mkOption {

Defines the type of messages that should be logged, and down to
which level of importance they should be considered.
The possible types are “artwork”, “database”, “general”, “http”,
“inotify”, “metadata”, “scanner”, “ssdp” and “tivo”.
The levels are “off”, “fatal”, “error”, “warn”, “info” and
“debug”, listed here in order of decreasing importance. “off”
turns off logging messages entirely, “fatal” logs the most
critical messages only, and so on down to “debug” that logs every
single messages.
The types are comma-separated, followed by an equal sign (‘=’),
followed by a level that applies to the preceding types. This can
be repeated, separating each of these constructs with a comma.
Defaults to “general,artwork,database,inotify,scanner,metadata,
http,ssdp,tivo=warn” which logs every type of message at the
“warn” level.
