      Hi:

      So I have intentionally disabled the quick menu option. The option where when pressing left or right it will go from one emulator to the next while in an emulators game list.

      When I am in a systems rom list is there an option to press left or right and have it go to the next letter in the alphabet? I know that if I just hold up or down it eventually accelerates but that is a bit touchy.

      Not a big deal just was wondering.

      Thanks,

        @battlecat I'm not sure if I complete understand the question but if you press the Select button when in your games list you get the option to jump to any letter of the alphabet in your games list.

          You can't move through the alphabet in the way that you're describing, but you can press the 'select' button and move through the alpahbet from the resulting menu. You can also move up and down one full page at a time by pressing the 'top left button' and 'top right button', making the navigation much faster than holding up and down.

            @mediamogul I didn't know this. Thank you.

            I am using an iPac2 with a real arcade cabinet so I will have to experiment with the button combos to figure it out.
