an item or tap on the menu icon if you are in doubt about what options are available to you.
When you leave the music playback screen while a song is still playing, it will keep playing
in the background. This allows you to browse your internal memory, view your photos or
surf the Web while listening to music. Regardless of what you are doing on your device
while the music is playing, you will be able to access the music playback screen by pulling
down the top notification bar .
10.1. Browsing through your music files
Here you see the music library screen with the cover-roll album art display
on the left. Scroll the albums vertically to see all the albums stored on
your device or scroll it horizontally to see your Favorites, Recently added,
Recently played, or All albums. If your music files do not include cover
art, then a standard cover icon will appear.
You can browse through your music by album, artist, or song name, via
your created play lists, your favorites, or as files and folders in the storage*
system. If some of your music files do not contain information tags, they
will be classified as (Unknown) in the Music Library. If not already
present, the music player widget can be placed on one of the five home
screens to give you quick access to your recently added and recently
played music.
* In addition to the internally stored music, you will see the option External in Storage.
This allows you to play music from media servers or from a file server over your WiFi
network.
10.1.1. CREATING PLAYLISTS
A playlist is a list of audio tracks that the music player will automatically
play one after the other (in order or randomly). You can play, create and
edit as many playlists as you want. To create or add to a playlist, find a
song or an album in the music browser and hold your finger down on it to
bring up the list of options. Select Add to playlist, and then you have the
option of putting it into an already established playlist or creating a new
play list.
When you delete a playlist (hold your finger down on the name of playlist
then select delete), you are only deleting the list and not the music itself.
10.1.2. THE FAVORITES LIST
The "Favorites" is where you keep the music you play the most often. To add a title,
an album, or an artist to your favorites list, just hold down on the item and a few
options will appear. Choose Add to favorites. The item will be marked with a star icon
. To access your favorites list at any time, go to the cover-roll browsing screen and
flick the albums left/right until you see the music called Favorites. To remove an item
from your favorites list, roll it into view and then hold your finger down on it and
choose Remove from favorites.
