While listening to music I frequently play image files like scanned album booklets. This works perfectly. The music continues to play and the image opens smoothly.

Similarly, while listening to music, I often want to play a txt or mht data file so I can read information about the music. This does not work as expected. The music stops playing and there is an annoying 0.5-1 second delay before the data file is opened.

Note 1: If music is not playing, there is no delay when playing a data file.

Note 2: Viewing data files via the View Extras menu works perfectly without stopping the music and without a delay.

Please make playing data files behave the same as playing image files. Or put another way, please make Play behave the same as View Extras for data files.

Interesting.

Sorry, I described the annoying delay incorrectly.

While playing music, if I play a data file the music stops immediately, and the data file opens immediately, and then MC then freezes for about a second. I'm guessing this could be the view doing an (unnecessary?) refresh.
