How to get (hidden?) credits in 2.0b7 - 11/01/2002 15:25

Just a small feature discovered last time I played with hijack:

1. set the visual to INFO TEXT (or some variation of it)
2. press and hold '2" on remote until the message FOUND MATCHING ARTIST appears
3. the screen will be blank, with no music or scrolling text
4. select any playlist & press play
6. enjoy the credits!
7. to cancel credits, just press CANCEL
B.

Important:
The Artist currently playing MUST (again: MUST) have "&" in it's name! Anything is ok, like "Siouxie & The Banshees", or like in my case "Kanda, Kozda & Nebojsa" (Never heard of it, eh? heheheh).

Simpler: The credits appear in info tex whenever there is an empty playlist.

There is also a bug in 2.0b7 causing them to appear from a fresh boot.
