1. Better Drill Through Option
  1. Better Drill Through Option

    Media Center 2005 and all previous versions has one oversight when it comes to peoples music collection. It assumes that everyone has there files filled with ID tags. However what if you want to play wav or other audio formats that don't have ID tags? or what if you have albums from various artists. (like dance or top 40 sort of cds?) This basically renders the album or artist view useless. I have over 1000 songs from around 400 different artists.

    Due to the many complaints of people i decided that a plug-in needed to be written in order for people to browse a folders and play directory's of songs. This plug-in has been released for free and it is available at http://www.xpmediacentre.com.au/community/forumdisplay.php?f=56
