There are two different ways to view your media in Music: [[Music#Files View|The Files View]] and [[Music#Library View|The Library View]]. Choose either option to learn more about them.
 
==Controls During Playback==
Controls during playback can be divided into two categories, in the GUI and during [[Visualizations]].
While in the GUI you are able to browse all of XBMC and even look at pictures while playing music. If we look at the different controlling methods XBMC offers, gaming controller playback options while in the GUI are limited. A remote, such as the orignal [[XBOX DVD-Remote Music Controls|XBOX DVD-Remote]] has conventional playback controls that can be used during music playback in the GUI as well as during Visualizations.
During GUI playback you can call up the ''Mini Control'' at any time if you are using a control method that does not offer standard playback controls.<br /><br />

== OSD (On Screen Display) ==
There are two different On Screen Displays (or "OSD" for short) available in Music:

; The [[Music Navigation and Control#Controls During Playback|mini-control]]
 
; The Visualization OSD
: The [[Visualizations]] OSD from the PM3.HD skin pictured on the left is available while in visualization mode. The Buttons on the OSD are as follows:
# '''Select Visualization''' - Allows you to select the visualization being displayed.
# '''Visualization Preset''' - Allows you to select the visualization preset being displayed.
# Stop
# '''Visualization Settings''' - Allows you to configure the current visualization.

==Visualizations==

One of the most impressive features of My Music is its integrated support for visualizations, which are a way to make your music come to life on screen. XBMC offers support for many visualizations and some of the following may be present in your installation:
* '''Saville'''
* '''Saville Blue'''
* '''Spectrum Analyzer'''
* '''StarBurst'''
* '''Boxalizer 1 and 2'''
* '''Fountain'''
* '''G-Force'''
* '''Goom'''
* '''Milkdrop''' - Arguably the best of all, with its mind-bending effects and the ability to fully customize it through the User Interface
* '''[[Vortex Visualization Development|Vortex]]'''
 
You can configure Visualization in one of two different ways: Through [[Music Settings]] or through the [[Music#OSD (On Screen Display)|On Screen Display (OSD)]] while playing the Visualization.
