If you've shown MC to your family or friends and found that they were unsure how to use it, here are some solutions.
RemotesMedia Center is probably best when controlled with
remotes. The most popular of these are now
Gizmo (Android) and
JRemote (Android and iOS) and
several other remotes that operate on phones or tablets.
Media Center can be controlled from another copy of MC. This is called "
Tremote".
Media Center Remotes are hardware remotes with a Green button.
Theater ViewHit the F11 key to jump to Theater View. This mode can be enjoyed with a keyboard, mouse, or Media Center Remote. You can operate it with just the four arrow keys and the enter key or OK button.
Play DoctorPress and hold any album, artist, or track to start playing a special playlist built around your original selection. These can be saved as "
Car Radio" buttons.
