Standard View has customizable top and bottom toolbars, which can be used to "pin" buttons for a variety of useful functions.

Media Center's top Toolbar in Windows
Media Center's bottom Toolbar in Windows
The Customize Toolbar dialog box.

The top toolbar contains the standard OS window controls (close, min, etc). On Windows, it also contains the File, Edit, View, and other drop-down menus (on the Mac version these are integrated into the OS menu bar).

The bottom Toolbar contains a flexible status display, which lists the number of files shown in any selected view, and other information about current processes in Media Center (such as background tagging operations). To these, you can add your own set of buttons that provide quick access to a variety of functions within MC.

To customize the toolbars, right click on one of them and choose Customize Toolbar to open the Customize Toolbar dialog.

This dialog allows you to choose which buttons to display in each Toolbar, and rearrange the items displayed. You can also add Separators to divide buttons up into groups (as shown in the screenshots above). If you use multiple Libraries or Zones, you may want to add the corresponding buttons to one of your toolbars, as they provide a quick way to switch between your different Zones or Libraries. Other useful buttons include:

  • Back and Forward
  • Refresh
  • Playing Now
  • Rotation commands for images
  • Navigation
