I can't seem to find where mp puts the square brackets surrounding things like the album title in. is this possible to change in a skin or is it hardcoded into mp's source?

These were hard-coded. I've added two extra attributes that apply to list, thumbnail and filmstrip views, the new attributes are as follows:

Code:
<folderPrefix>Folder:</folderPrefix>
<folderSuffix></folderSuffix>

You can set your a prefix and suffix to your own liking either in references.xml, meaning all instances of the support views will use these values, or you can set them on a control by control basis.

These changes will be available in the next CVS snapshot.

Cheers,
Smirnuff.

you are right.. I spotted why it's not working. For what ever reason, the 3x recently added / watched for TV series, etc was killing it.. I've removed it for now and it's started working again. I'll have to dig a little deeper as to why it's happened all of a sudden.

maybe setting loglevel to debug might pinpoint the difference between normal and stuck? Preferable with as much disabled as possible also try to see if anything is happening during stuck for the mediaportal process(resource monitor, disk activity, cpu usage, anything) maybe other programs competing for resouces?
