No. When you create an embedded container, this is a logical track by itself. It can contain any overlapping, multiple tracks. As such it has its own meta data for song title updates.
In your above case (with the new transition types) separate tracks are created by default. But if you create a container that container needs to have the meta data. Note, that you can click on the small T in a script-line to overwrite/define the song title.

And what do you put on the T in script so that the container can also read the track name?
${artist} - ${title}
Already tried the above but this does not work.
Can you click somewhere in the script that you can automatically execute the following? Expand container ?

That doesn’t work. The container T title can not grab any data from the container tracks.
Just don’t create a container in the first place.

making the container... was to be able to randomly select a French, German, Italian song.
For this we also wanted a suitable jingle.... and that's why the container was proposed... see above.
Expand container manually executed. Could this also be done automatically?
However, you can already do so much with Proppfrexx.... we may sometimes be looking too far! It is certainly a great program!

No, containers can only be expanded manually.
But why don’t you create three cartwall libs (one Frensh, one German, one Italien).
You then set a the Country for each music track. And use a Filter in the script-line (or also define a media lib per country). Ie. per script-line you have a dedicated country and a related Sweeper/Jingle fitting each other.
This way you don’t need any container and have each track and Jingle separate for the individual song title updates for streaming.

Oh yes of course... yes this is of course the way it can work. Yes totally didn't think of that. Thanks for the explanation!

No, you could put the script mode to random, to even the script-lines are randomly picked. You could alternatively Execute another script as a script-line, whereas this script returns a random country selection…

Yes, it worked with the execute mode ....
Thanks for thinking of a solution ! Great !
