View long Artist/Album Names

Is there any way to view long artist & album names or the iPod?

EG. I have a few albums with names like "Now That's What I Call Music Vol 54 (cd1)"

But on the iPod screen it reads "Now That's What..." Not very helpful when there are quite a few albums (Vol 30-54).

Thanks for any advice.

Unfortunately, no. Only the Track title scrolls.

My only suggestion -- Rename your albums. :/

The N is to keep it roughly sorted alphabetically where it should be... Then the V. xx-x would be your volume and CD Numbers.

NV. 52-1 - Now That's What I Call Music
NV. 52-2 - Now That's What I Call Music
NV. 53-1 - Now That's What I Call Music
NV. 53-2 - Now That's What I Call Music
NV. 54-1 - Now That's What I Call Music
NV. 54-2 - Now That's What I Call Music

It's a shame... but hey. ;)

Oh, forgot to mention, it's in the browse screens, not now playing.

I'm reluctant to rename the Albums because I use MP3 mixing software & hardware which relies heavily on the tags being correct.

Never mind, think I'll just have to live with it. Thanks for the response.
