As more music collections are added to the Kaleidescape System, the keypad

commands are also able to browse the collections.

Example

If the user wants to step through every album in the Kaleidescape System, define a

set of buttons to step through the Albums by Artist collection. When the user

presses the First Album button, all music plays, this is because the first item on the

Albums by Artist collection is All Music. If the user subsequently presses the Next

button, the first album by the first artist plays, since the Album Collection is sorted

alphabetically by artist name.

The API controls in the keypad music collections operate independently from other

methods for choosing music to play. When a user presses the next button for a

collection, the next item relative to the last item played from the keypad always

plays. For example, the system has three artists, ABBA, The Beatles, and The Cars.

While listening to ABBA, the user presses the Next Artist button on the keypad to

skip from ABBA to The Beatles. A little while later, the user selects ABBA from the

onscreen display. The next time the user presses Next Artist on the keypad, The Cars

starts playing, even though the user might expect The Beatles to start playing.
