In an effort to make Myth more user friendly and more consistent across
all screens using the number keys to access options has gone. Some of
the options could be replaced with user definable key bindings or jump
points if necessary but using the menu to access those options is the
preferred way.

On any of the music views Menu->Switch View->Full Screen Visualiser.

To change the visualiser on any view that has a visualiser Menu->Change
Visualiser and select the one you want from there.

It's still a Work-In-Progress the 0.25 release has put everything on
hold for the moment. There's a few fixes that I need to look at before
the release but apart from that no new features will be added until 0.25
is done.
