[QUOTE="dartmusic, post: 60124, member: 21459"] Like I mentioned above, that's NOT what I did. I went to My Music, navigated to an artist, then an album by that artist and once I get down to the actual songs, instead of looking like "normal" or like they should (I've been using MP off and on for over a year), the actually songs that I could/should be able to choose to play are faded or greyed out and I can't navigate TO the actual songs to try to play them. The "cursor" goes nowhere (not the mouse cursor, but the highlighted icon showing where you're nagivating), it basically disappears until I move it back to highlight an option on the left. This is exactly the same action/s that you would have if you chose DirectShow as your music player in the setup, as opposed to chosing WMP9. I don't think a screenshot would be all that helpful...meaning that unless you can see it in "action" (or should I say "inaction!") it doesn't mean anything. If you go to setup and switch your music player to DirectShow, click OK and then try to navigate your music collection you'll see what I mean. I don't mean to sound like a smartass, really!! Believe me, I clicked around a LOT after navigating THROUGH my music library...why that doesn't show up in the log is beyond me. Thanks again. I feel like a tit, as I usually know what the heck is going on with my system/s (I have three: laptop, media center and an XP box in my recording studio), but it seems that the more time I spend with Ubuntu (on the laptop), the more I understand it and the less I understand (or have patience for) Windows...which I've been using since 3.11. I really do appreciate your help. PS: I missed this last time, but I clicked "the green button" on the MCE remote and then navigated to the X from the main MP screen to exit. You said to exit before I sent you the log, right? [/QUOTE]
