I have a server side playlist with about 50 videos. Is there a way to
make the playlist more navigatable than simply having to hit 'Next' on
every video? Some sort of menu? Ability to jump over X songs? Any
ideas appreciated.

Not really, no. Typically, you'd place the playlist details for
something like that in a dynamically generated webpage, and use a file
or directory based publishing point instead of using a single playlist
and leaving it to WMP to provide the navigation.
If your navigation must stay inside the standalone player, you can use
HTMLView element in an ASX (client side) playlist to point to a web
page to display in the Now Playing area.

No, the OP asked about a *server side* (WSX) playlist or publishing
point. Your example is using a *client side* (ASX) playlist. You don't
have control over the server playout from that end.
