[QUOTE="Bagal, post: 206355, member: 27764"] Media portal has a number of views you can use to display your content, by default (I think) it uses the 'Shares' view which basically just show's the contents of your configured folders as they are structured on the drive. There's normally an option on the left hand side of the GUI called 'Switch View', click this and you'll be able to switch to a number of views such as 'Album', 'Genre' etc. which is what you're after. I believe you will also need to make sure all your music has been added to the database, you can do this by loading the Media Portal Configuration app, going to 'Music->Music Database' and clicking 'Update database from selected shares'. Also in the Media Portal Configuration app, you can modify the existing views or create your own, for music this is under 'Music->Music Views'. [/QUOTE]
