Whoa! Shameless B-U-M-P

BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMP!

I'm looking for a way to get a shortcut to specific albums directly from my desktop. I've just configured my N900 to work as an in-car media centre and sat nav routed through the FM transmitter all controlled through very finger friendly beecons, but I would also like to hot-link directly to albums - does anyone know the code for a beecon or another way of hotlinking to individual albums?

Phone Control linking to media player would work, but using the following test scripts in xTerm returns "Unable to Find Media File";

Code:

dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.mediaplayer /com/nokia/mediaplayer com.nokia.mediaplayer.mime_open string:"file:///home/user/MyDocs/.sounds/<Album Name>/*.mp3"

Although if anyone has any other pointers that would tweak this script to run a full album of songs rather than a single media file I would be in awe

Any help greatly appreciated.
