Combine iTunes-playlists with library view?

[Streggi]

hi

when i access my music collection (8k tracks) via smb there is a lag as i browse from folder to folder, or if i launch an itunes playlist. this browsing lag isn't there if i swithch the view to 'library'.

is there anyway i can combine the best from both worlds on one screen without having to switch i.e reduce the browsing lag by displaying my library but also having a link on the same screen to my itunes playlists?

or, how do i reduce the browsing lag?

one final question. i've just noticed that although i can't see the album art in my itunes playlists, if i search for info on each track it stores the correct image. is there anyway to scan all the files in a playlist in one go rather than having to do one at a time?

library view uses a local database. that's why there is no lag or less of a lag to be more specific.

and no, you cannot mix and match. you're either in library view or files view. library view is the local database, and files view is your bookmarks.

the only way to reduce the browsing lag in files view is to put your files on the xbox.

i'm unfamiliar with itunes daap:// bookmarks, so i cant comment on your other question.
