Okay, I think I've figured out the problem from my last post... so the colored square is multijuke working on the library, is that correct? The whole thing locked up, but I restarted it, selected my directory of mp3s and tried again, this time when I hit 'tab', the colored square started going and after a while, I was good to go.
It takes a long time for me to see my album list. The screen is blank for just long enough to make me think that the program is locked up... and then the eight albums appear.
How can I select fewer albums per page? Is there a way to only show 4 at a time.
So, what else... Well, it would really be nice to be able to use the mouse and the keyboard at the same time. Right now I have it set to "touchscreen" so I can use my mouse to set things up, but the control is clumsy. Alright, I just tried "trackball" and I guess that's a little easier. Even though I can't click on anything, I can use both the keyboard and the mouse to do stuff.
Also, you have letters ("A Select" "B Parent" "D Show Queue" etc) and numbers next to the albums and songs. These lead me to believe that I can type those letters and numbers to choose each of those. You know press "A" for "Select", Press "D" to "Show Queue" etc Is that an option? I think I saw a keyboard mapping option in the menu, so maybe I can do that. Having those letters there just lead me to believe that pressing that letter will do something.
Same thing with the numbers beside each song. Is there a way that pressing "3" would select the song that has the "3" next to it?
Also, after selecting an album and then a song, how do I get back out to the album list? I'm stuck looking at just that album when I'm in trackball mode. I don't know how to get out of it. Right now my solution is to hit the "tab" button, bringing up the config and then closing the config to get back to the main playlist option.
I'm given the option of "C More" and "D Show Queue" at the top of the menu, but when I'm using just the keyboard as a controller, I don't know how to get to those options. Using the arrows never takes me up there. I can select "A Select" by hitting "ctrl" and I can select "B Parent" by hitting "Alt" but I don't know how to get to "C" or "D". Same thing with "trackball" mode. With "touchscreen" I can use my mouse to select any of those...
hey, plus there seems to be a "find" option with the touchscreen, but not when using the keyboard?
Finally, how do I quit the program? When I'm in fullscreen mode, there doesn't seem to be any way to get out of it.
Whew, I guess all/most of my issues have to do with the controls. I'm clearly not used to them and don't quite understand how to control the program.
EDIT: Sometimes when I hit "tab" to get out of the config menu, the whole program immediately closes.
