Hi all.
Apologies to begin with - can't find the WMP mobile troubleshooting page MS alludes to on it's "welcome to win mobile" page.

Questions:
1. With WMP mobile 10.3, any tracks from a compilation album (i.e. different artists but same album name) cause the album to be listed loads of times, one per artist. Obviously I'd like the album listed only once. Any clues? Is this a bug? I import with winamp and the album names are identical, the tags are clean, the folder structure on my desktop hard drive is VA\Album for compilations, artist\album for normals.

2. If this isn't workaroundable, does anyone know if there's a manual for coreplayer? I have it & use it for videos but can't make head nor tail of it's library function - i think it might be corrupt, in fact. Or should I give up completely and use pocket player 4?

3. WMP mobile - will skins improve the size of the library items? It's tough to hit them on the move, give the small size. Seems ill-thought-out, given the amount of free space on the page. Classic Microsoft, I suppose.

Thanks all!

2. Found manual here (http://support.corecodec.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=44), which helps. CorePlayer is massively unintuitive and both have been designed with no consideration that the users may be mobile, and don't want to have to use the stylus all the time.

No ideas for #1? Fixing this would save me having to use CorePlayer to play music, which would be a bonus since it's a pain to go through so many menus to do something so simple...
