Merlin music player.

Hi,
I was using the Merlin Music player, but then upgraded to V 19.3 on my U4. I don't seem to be able to find the plugin anymore.
Is it available for this firmware? Or is there an alternative?
The main feature I am looking for is to automatically play each track in turn.

Upgrading from T2 to U4 with same harddisk.

Hi Gurus. I am looking to replace my current T2 with a U4. I want to use the hard disk currently in the T2 in the U4. I also want to retain the recordings on the hard disk currently in the T2. I think I have asked if it is possible. Now I am in a position to do it. Are there any tricks and/or traps?...

As the U4 uses a 2.5" harddrive, what considerations would be necessary to install a drive from a T2 into a U4?
The idea is to retain settings, timers, network settings, records etc.

Yes, moving the cursor until it disappears and adding an extra number of cursor left movements does work.
Another workaround is to shorten the title when adding the prefix.
