Plugins – Music Browser
If you have a large collection of music (mine is over 40Gb) then you might find the standard Media Centre Music Library interface is not meeting your requirements. Issues arise especially if your MP3 tags are not correctly filled out, as this is what Media Centre uses to sort and categorise your music collection.
A common way to over come this is to store your music collection in folders by artist name or by genre. So you would end up with a file structure like:
A –> Anthrax
Ant Farm
Aphrodite
B –> Beastie Boys
Boogie Pimps
But Media Centre can not display your music collection by folders. Luckily there is a plug in that does: Music Browser. This little application enables you to browse through your music collection by folder. And the great thing is that it uses the album images the Media Centre download, so you can still see your favourite album cover.
The plugin is easy to install and it’s free! You can get it here.
If you have a large music collection this plugin is essential!!
