Best way to set up Music Library? (1 Viewer)

[gRntaus]

Hi everyone I've been fiddling with Media Portal a little and have decided to make it my frontend of choice. It's as visually stunning as XBMC but has the same sort of functionality I was looking for from WMC. My only query is what's the best way to set up my Music Library such that it emulates XBMC or the iPhone stlye "Album Scrolling". I'm using the StreamedMP skin and got it to reorganise my Library and now it just displays a list of album / artists sorted by letter.

My Current Heirachy is as follows:

E:\
\Music\
\Artist\
\Album\
\Song.mp3\

I don't mind changing it to suit Media Portal but trying to achieve something like this

or this

but with cover art / fan art for the album.

Is there a plugin available for this or a good way to set up my folders? Otherwise very very happy with this software, got my TV Tuner on order for Xmas from the folks and my HTPC will be fully functional!

Have a look at this post: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/listen-music-99/guide-music-section-mediaportal-77404/, it contains a very good guide to setting up the music section of MediaPortal.

The music section of MediaPortal is very customisable but it can take a bit of work to understand and get it set up how you like it.
Personally I don't like the out of the box music experience of MP, but after following the above guide, I've got it exactly how I want it now.

Thanks mate seemed to work OK, seems I still need to do some tweaking but that's a pretty normal thing I guess. Only thing I don't like is that Audioscrobbler just takes art work and I can't seem to change it so it's grabbed some wrong info. Will have to look into whether FanArt Handler can over ride that info and also whether or not I can make my own fan art for the backgrounds........otherwise almost done.
