    Multitasking in ME

    There's probably a simple answer for this,
    When I am playing music, how do I get run another program to run through externals apps (Like my GPS) I allways have to go to the main (home) menu and then click on external apps.. when I do this my music stops playing.
    Whats up?
    Please don't scold me on this

    From the main mp3 playing screen press the UP arrow then press the little button that looks like a hard drive (that's where you launch ext. apps) the music will keep playing. Music will always stop if you hit the Home button.

    I knew it was a simple answer, Thanks

    OK, I got that, thanks. Now how do I return back to the MediaEngine? All I see is the WinnAmp.

    Does MediaEngine play wma's? Cause everytime I try to add the file ext. the program closes when I click on a wma music file.

    After you pick your app. it should launch and you should have a mini control bar for the music playing. If you want to quit the app you're running just click the X on the mini control bar to return back to ME.

    Not sure about the WMA, I don't use that format (I try to use as little of MiroShaft's stuff as possible). It might be that the small older version of WinAmp that ME uses (I think it's 2.8, don't remember off the top of my head though) didn't support WMA natively, you might have to find a plugin for it.
