Title: Can't view media library and now playing at once?
Post by: Malician on January 21, 2007, 05:53:19 pm

I've primarily used Linux in the last year or so (with the music player amaroK), but I need to use Windows right now.  I agonized over finding a music player with basic media library and playlist capability.  I've gotta have artist / album / song hierarchy without additional views (Windows Media Player), horrible lag (Yahoo Musicmatch) or inability to easily display individual songs along with artists and albums inside the music library window. 

JRiver appears to do everything *right* - I can see everything, all three sets of info, I can dump whatever I want onto the playlist quickly and easily. 

Only one problem: I can't actually SEE the playlist, which is a major problem D:  Is there any way to get both the Now Playing pane and the three media library panes on the same screen?

Any help would be appreciated!

Right-click "Playig Now" in the tree and pick "Edit Playing Now"  It'll open in the Action Window, and supports full drag-n-drop and clipboard operations.

You can get even fancier and play around with split views. (View menu)

Cool. I wanted this capability a while ago but never thought it was possible! MC12 continues to surprise me :).
