5. Audio

The application "Audio" enables you to listen to music or text files. Make sure it is the
active application by using the "Selector" button until you hear the word "Audio".
Audio plays the following formats:
Format
MP3 Most popular compressed digital audio file format.
AAC Compressed digital audio file (former standard of Apple's iTunes).
WMA Windows Media Audio: Compressed digital audio file used by
Windows Media Player.
WAV Uncompressed and therefore relatively large digital audio file, which
requires up to 10 times more space than a corresponding MP3 file.
MP4 Standard video and audio container: Played by Milestone 212 Ace if using
AAC audio stream. Please note that such a file needs initialization time.
M4A Compressed digital audio format from Apple's iTunes.
E.g. music and podcasts. (Apple Lossless is not supported)
M4V Digital video format from Apple's iTunes. Milestone plays the audio stream
of this data format. Please note that such a file needs initialization time.
TXT Plain text file stored in your language specific code-page (1250, 1251,
1252, 1253, 1254 or 1256). Unicode files are not supported.

5.1. Navigation in Audio

5.1.1. Navigation when not using a folder structure
In case you've saved all your data in the root of the SD memory card, rather than using a
folder structure, the navigation is kept very simple. Just press „Right arrow" to advance to
the next file and press „Left arrow" to go back to the previous file. The files are always
sorted in alphabetical order.
5.1.2. Navigation when using a folder structure
If you prefer to organize and store your data in folders, you will also use the „Rec" and
„Mode" buttons for conveniently navigating through your available files.
Basically, the 4 buttons around the middle „Play" button represent a directional pad.
By using the arrow buttons, you can jump from one folder or file to selecting another. Press
the „Mode" button to actually enter folders and use „Rec" to leave the folder again, taking
you back one level within the folder tree.
Example: Let us assume you want to listen to your favorite Elvis Presley song.
You have a folder called "Music" and a folder named "Text" on your SD memory card. In
the folder "Music" you have created two subfolders named "Oldies" and "Country". You've
saved your favorite Elvis song and other tunes in the subfolder "Oldies".
