Feature requst: easier to scroll through artist list in theatre mode

(1/1)

danielpugh:
In theatre mode with mce remote i wanted to play  a james blake album, while listening.  

1 i go to artist
2 i have to scroll for over a minute
3 while scolling text is unreadable

Ideas for Solutions -  
1 alphabet e.g. Go straight to "J"
2 while scrolling a popup shows that is readable not blurred as i scroll e.g. A then B then C etc
Example can be seen when scrolling in plex,  or jremote.   

Hope that makes sense,

Dan

You can type using the number keys on your remote and it'll scroll to whatever you type.

danielpugh:
there are no number keys on the remote...
its the harmony ultimate. there is a screen but no way of knowing if a 6 is a "j" or "k"
basic remotes don't have the keys at all e.g. tv remote repurposed (up down left right enter back only)

I don't think number keys invalidates the feature request exactly
if you scroll it is blurry and impossible to see where you are so you have to stop scrolling then start then stop then start etc etc

JimH:
On my remote the 5 is also JKL.  Press 5 once for J, twice for K,  three times for L.  You could try that.

Channel up and channel down also do page up and page down.

You could also utilize grouping and set up a view similar to what I did here.
