OK that figures. I thought it didn't feel quite right, but I'm not good at texting and assumed that I was getting confused. So far I've only got about 30 albums captured, so navigation isn't difficult. I can see it would get tricky with a few hundred though. > > btw: the number keys on the normal keyboard do this too, BUT typing a > letter, say, A, does not jump anywhere. It seems mythmusic is very much oriented to being used with a simple remote, with several functions assigned to number keys. > > > What I really want is to be able to select files as per the directory > structure I keep them in. Funny, but that seems the easiest way. Have you looked at the music area of Media Setting, in the frontend setup up? I believe you can change the way listings are displayed by reordering the keywords such as /GENRE/YEAR/ARTIST/TRACK etc etc. Without knowing your directory structure I'm not sure whether this will do what you want though.
