The ARTIST label seems to be taken from the occupation type of the ParsonAspect. Is taht correct? If yes, shouldn't it be localized?

The label is basically correct, but about the content in not sure. Is it not because their occupation is artist? I just wondered why everything is in capitals.

Yes, it is but it is more of an type ID than it is a label. It's to identify what type of person the data is for. You can see the different types of persons here.
You could use those "ID"'s for writing the localized text in the label.

Ok, that explains the capital letters . I'll add a localized label based on the property of occupation.

I localized, but there are 2 small issues for which I need a dev hint:

• It seems I can not place strings (ACTOR, ...) directly into the ExpressionMultiValueConverter. Shall I add further bindings for each one with "Binding Souce=..."?
  
• And I have problems to bind localization content [Media.xxx]. Instead of the localized text the LabelName with brackets is shown.

            <Label FontSize="{ThemeResource SmallFontSize}" Color="{ThemeResource MenuTextBackground}" Opacity="1.3">
              <Label.Content>
                <MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource ExpressionMultiValueConverter}"
                              ConverterParameter="{}{0} == ARTIST ? {1} : ({0} == ACTOR ? {2} : ({0} == WRITER ? {3} : ({0} == DIRECTOR ? {4} : ({0} == COMPOSER ? {5}))))">
                  <Binding Path="Occupation"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.ArtistOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.ActorOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.WriterOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.DirectorOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.ComposerOccupationName]"/>
                </MultiBinding>
              </Label.Content>
            </Label>

Edit: Following does also not bring any result

            <Label FontSize="{ThemeResource SmallFontSize}" Color="{ThemeResource MenuTextBackground}" Opacity="1.3">
              <Label.Content>
                <MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource ExpressionMultiValueConverter}"
                              ConverterParameter="{}{0} == {1} ? {6} : ({0} == {2} ? {7} : ({0} == {3} ? {8} : ({0} == {4} ? {9} : ({0} == {5} ? {10}))))">
                  <Binding Path="Occupation"/>
                  <Binding Source="ARTIST"/>
                  <Binding Source="ACTOR"/>
                  <Binding Source="WRITER"/>
                  <Binding Source="DIRECTOR"/>
                  <Binding Source="COMPOSER"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.ArtistOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.ActorOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.WriterOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.DirectorOccupationName]"/>
                  <Binding Source="[Media.ComposerOccupationName]"/>
                </MultiBinding>
              </Label.Content>
            </Label>

{0} == ARTIST

I'm just guessing, but shouldn't it be \"ARTIST\", \"ACTOR\" etc.?

Unfortunately not, also the second problem remains. @Brownard

I *cannot* wait for MP2.1 to be available to test so I can use this skin. The effort you've put into this is outstanding!

you are not alone...

At the time of the Inquisition, @ge2301 would have been a good torture slave. His information is the purest torture. To know, MP2 and the themes are almost finished but no real time know ... Real tormenting ...
