Feature Request

When playing a concert video (i.e. content that has been video bookmarked with "play song" option), when I chapter + or chapter - on the remote, rather than show the chapter number in the OSD graphic in the top right corner of the display, instead can it show "song title" ...when I'm remote surfing through a concert video it would be nice to know what song I'm landing on, instead of the chapter number (which doesn't mean much to me). I know the system is smart enough to know what song is associated with each chapter, it would be nice to make better use of that information in the on-screen GUI overlay.
 
As a related feature request, on concerts or musicals that have songs bookmarked, I would like to have the option to "play all" just like I can with scenes. I do a work-around now by marking all the songs as scenes and then do "play all scenes".

Good idea... but if it's a concert disc, is there much difference between having the system playing every single song in order and simply choosing to play the whole disc? I'd think that all the songs are marked, that they appear in order in the K interface, and therefore the concatenation of all of those songs is pretty much the same as playing the concert from start to finish.
 
Yes, I mainly use for musicals.

However, there are some concerts where the chapter breaks are such that the beginning of the chapter includes dialog instead of starting at the beginning of the next song (Diana Krall - Live In Paris). By setting scenes I can skip the introduction of band members etc. One added benefit is that when I skip to the next scene it flashes the name of the song in the top right corner.

ah, that makes sense... and the UI display of the scene/song name is a nice touch.
i agree, it would be a nice addition to the feature set, and consistent with the rest of the UI.
