Now that we have the cover flows etc can we have a remote control command to change the list style?

While I am here, I might as well say that since I've started using my Microsoft remote using the volume control or directional arrows can get annoying.

If I turn the volume up or down I have to keep pressing the volume keys, holding it down only turns the volume down one notch.. This is the same for the directional arrows when navigating. It can be very time consuming.

Does this behaviour happen with anyone else on different remotes? Is there anyway to change it?

Thanks

My MCE remote repeats nicely when I hold buttons down.  I agree it would be annoying without that.

Batteries?  Or is it an off-brand MCE remote that doesn't handle repeats?

Hi Matt thanks for the reply.

I have the following remote.
http://usb.brando.com/microsoft-media-center-remote-model-1039_p01464c035d015.html

I just found the route of the problem. When I started using the remote I programmed every button with J River, including up, down, left, right.

I just un-programmed those buttons and the repeats work perfectly now (The same applied to the volume buttons)

Page up & down commands still don't repeat well. I programmed the CH-PG, up and down buttons on my remote to deal with this (Adjacent to the volume buttons). I don't think that these buttons when un-programmed will deal with page up & down requests.

Anyway now that to directional arrow buttons and volume are working well, I think I can live with the page up & down not working, unless you have any suggestions on how I can fix it.

Thanks

Matt
