I am happy with Squeezelite-X on my PC, it comes in handy.
When starting and loading an album, I choose ALBUM and then the list is
very long.
Is there a way to quickly go to e.g. "S" in the alphabet? How about if I
type a letter on the keyboard, it goes to that section of the list?
I installed from the Microsoft Store - just wondering - will these
