Collection
Use this view to manage and display your personal collection of titles. The toolbar
on top of the browser allows you to configure the way your collection is displayed
and to reorganize the collection. Define the order your titles are displayed in the
browser with Group By. You can choose between predefined criteria or create your
own sort criteria using Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary. The next four icons let
you toggle between tree view, flat view and iPod* view or Show dividers for better
overview in large music collections. Use the wrench icon to add or delete folders

To search or filter your collection for a certain track or album, enter the title (or
part of it) in the search field at the top. Each character you enter narrows down the
search and the selection in the browser is adjusted as you type. To search for certain
metadata such as Genre or Bitrate or to combine several search options, click the
button to the right of the search field to open the Edit Filter dialog.
Playlists
You can access different playlists with the playlist browser. Playlists holds your
personal playlists found in your collection folders. Every time you create and save
a new playlist from the playlist window, it appears here. Right-click the Playlist
folder to create or import a new playlist or to add a subfolder. To add new items
from the playlist window to an existing playlist, just drag and drop them on the
playlist in the browser window.
