Hmm, maybe a skin problem? See if switching skins has any effect. Other than that, I dunno...

Yes, check that, as the skin tells it what font to use, etc...

Josh,

I am not certain but......

Try going into PREFERANCES (ctrl-p),
then click the options tag,
then bottom right you should see a setting:

"Read meta data from playlist"

Try checking that and click APPLY.

Let us know.

Larry
