 The Videos, Music, and Photo icons represent folders for the different media
types. Media contents are displayed as files/file folders. Music files may contain
metadata information that gets picked up and compiled by auto scan (see “Auto
Scan Storage” on page 44). For example, media compilation by auto scan allows
music files with metadata to be searched based on genre or the artist’s name.
 Setup lets you customize the way you use the multimedia drive and set
preferences for media playback. For more information, see “Setup and Advanced
Features” on page 41.
