Question [Jukebox] Why no MP3 directory browsing

I'm a newbie with SageTV (using the trial version for 9 days) and I'm currently playing around with the Jukebox.

I have about more than 100 MP3 albums and some of them are ripped by myself and others are downloaded, so not all the tags are made by the same program. Also I have a MP3 folder with about 2000 different songs from different artists and some of these MP3 tags also include album info.

So when I import the MP3 directories in SageTV and I want to view the Albums it is just horrible!!!
Albums are shown with only one song in it!!! (This is caused by the MP3 folder with the 2000 diff. songs!!!)

Ofcourse I can make new tags for all MP3's, but wouldn't it just be easier if I could browse through my MP3 directories like I do in Windows?

Is this possible (for instance with a plugin?)

Because this is really

Check out the MlbDude2 STV. It includes a folder based MP3 browser.

Allright I installed MlbDude2 STV the latest version, went to the Setup Menu -> Detailed Setup -> "Libary Import Directories" -> Modify -> added my MP3 directory

(... waited some time before SageTV was ready.... )

Next: Media Lirary & DVD -> Music JukeBox -> Yeesss, it works!

But two questions:
1. When I get into a MP3 directory, I don't see to get up anymore. How do I do this?
2. In each MP3 map I got a picture of the MP3 album, is it possible to show this picture in "map" picture?

[Edit:] Found the answers....
1. Use the back button
2. Read the MlbDude2 web page.... (rename the pictures to folder.jpg )
