two options:
- on the home menu, press right from the 'music' button and select 'files' on the submenu
- in the music library, press left till you get to the hidden menu on the left and disable library mode.

Ohhhh. The first works for me, but I cannot find the music library (not listed in list on music screen and not listed when pressing arrow right on Music button). Isn't this somewhat inconsistent?
Clicking on .. in Movies list eventually gives you the Files option. No such option exists in Music
Right clicking on Movies button gives you the library but not the Files
Right clicking on Music gives you Files but not the Library
I am confused..

Thanks for the elaboration. I did notice that the inconsistency is an XBMC feature rather than just a skin one.
I just ran into another oddity, perhaps a bug. When I play music via the files menu, the song being played is listed with duration at the bottom of the screen with the list of tracks on the right ... except that the currently played song is NOT listed at the bottom but only the first one that was played (the list does highlight the right song). I have a screenshot but don't know how to make it available.

I am sorry but would you care to explain why this is done in this way? I am listening to track 7 of an album now and get no info at all, since the screen still shows the first track info. As the program moves from song to song am I supposed to reach for the remote and follow it along just so I can see the song info? In Confluence this works flawlessly and the song info is updated as you move from song to song.
PS. I am only bugging you because I like Transparency so much.

Yes, let's (-:
I did notice that if I switch away from music while something is playing the songs are updated in the new window and that is very nice.
