Playing your Music - Windows XP Media Center Edition: Exposed

Publish date: 2024-07-24

Once you've found the song you want, playing it will bring you to this screen; you can select an entire album to play or just one song, either way you'll be greeted with the same screen. If you hit the Media Center button on the remote (big green button) it will take you back to the main media center menu but your music will continue to play, what you're listening to will appear in the lower left hand corner as you can see from the screenshot above.

Here we have an entire track listing, the song with the icon to the right of its play length is what is currently being played. You can pause, fast forward and rewind through the song you're playing using the same controls you would for watching TV; the same overlay is used.

Other than the annoying issue of having to use Windows Media Player to add music to your library, MCE does a fine job of managing your music for you and making it easy to get to.
