ORGANISING YOUR
MUSIC COLLECTION
This chapter describes the features built into your XMusic
Digital Music Server to help you organise the music in your
music library, including information about creating playlists
of your favourite tracks, programming preset ‘stations’,
deleting albums or tracks you no longer want to store, and
naming albums, tracks, and artists.
PLAYLISTS
Your Digital Music Server allows you to create your own
selections of tracks, called playlists, and identify them with a
name of your choice. For example, you could select your
favourite party tracks from a number of different albums
and include them in a playlist called Party Music. You can
then play your selection simply by choosing the appropriate
playlist from the Select Playlist menu.
