What should I see in iTunes with Firefly server?

I've just begun looking at using iTunes (on a Win XP PC) with my flac library on a Ultra 2 Plus (Firefly v1.03).
I can connect to the sharing from iTunes and streaming is working. My question is: should I be able to browse the archive as album/artist/year... etc with artwork in this mode? At the moment I only have access to a long list of all the songs and no possibility to change to a different view or see artwork.

Thanks
Olav

    Firefly has a limited feature set. This is a limitation of it.
  • I have discovered that if I use Apple Remote on an iPod to control iTunes on my PC I can search and browse by albums etc. Still no cover art, but much better than all songs in a long list. So iTunes is receiving the library info from Firefly, but does not display it. As long as iP*d's with Remote 'sort of' works I'm good.
