On Device Playlist Navigation

The following functionality is available on Linn DS devices that have a front panel display. A remote control handset is required to invoke the functionality. A playlist must first be loaded to the device via a Linn compliant control point (DS source must be selected if available). 3rd party UpnpAv control points currently only support playlists of 1 track, so will not work (currently playlist sizes up to 1000 tracks are supported otherwise).
