CREATING GROUPS
In addition to Playlists, the MS300 allows you to create custom
“Groups” of Music Titles or Radio Stations. User created Groups
appear in the Group Bar along with the automatically created Genre
Groups and System Groups (All, CDs, Internal, and Playlists). Some
uses for custom Group are:
Organize music titles or radio stations into custom genres, like
“Funk”, 80’s, “Hits’, etc…
Group all of the albums for a favorite artists together for quick
access.
Create an easily accessible collection of your favorite albums.
To create a custom Group, follow these steps:
1. Press the MUSIC key to make sure you are in the Music
source mode or press the RADIO key if you want to create a
custom Radio Group.
2. Press the OPTIONS key to display the Options Menu.
3. Select the
NEW GROUP menu item.
4. Using the remote control or keyboard, enter a name for your
Group.
5. Select the CONTINUE button on screen to advance to the Edit
Group Select Guide. The Edit Group Select Guide works just
like the Music or Radio Guide.
6. For each Music Title or Radio Station you want to add to
the Group, highlight the Title or Station name and press the
SELECT key on the remote. A checkmark appears to the right
of each selected Title or Station indicating that it will be added
to the Group. Press SELECT again to remove the checkmark.
7. When you have selected all of the Titles or Stations you want
to include in the group, press the RECORD button on the
remote control to save the Group.
