Hello,

I'm niew to MP, love it.

Is there a shortcut to jump to "now playing" in Music?

Thanks

It should be one in the left menu of the Music section, it may also depend on the skin you use...
Thx for the fast response.

I would like to map it to a remote button, so I need a keyboard shortcut, unless I'm overlooking something.

I'm using the default Blue Wide skin, 2.2 +svn.

    Hi,
    It wont help you to map it to a button, to use "Now Playing" you need songs & if you're in My Music browsing for some you can (MCE remote) use "Play" button + some settings in MP Setup -> Music -> Misc Settings & select the Play now behavior, then it will open in Now Playing when you hit play on an song/folder.

    Regards
    Roy

    The AlbumArt in the bottom left corner should be selectable and should link to Now Playing, like in MCE2005. Seems pretty simple!

    Hi,
    This is MediaPortal & not MCE2005 ;)

    The preview window should be selectable (remote, mouse & keyboard) & when selected + enter/ok it should go to fullscreen visualization (which it did before), so this is probably a bug after introduction of the new viz window.

    Regards
    Roy

    Your observation is correct mate. Last time this happened the fires of hell invaded all shopping centers... this time I seem to be the only one in need - which is quite uncomfortable at best. I guess I should look for an alternate solution until and if other MP users realize they have no guide listings. Thank you for chiming in...

    i love how subtitles are implemented in the MP2 videoplayer, this is just perfect. 1080p playback is also very good. But video playback in MP2 is buggy when playing 4k material. Therefore: PLEASE add an option for an external video player! I'd LOVE to have VLC back as videoplayer, like in MP1! This works perfectly. You will make a...
