Adding a Bookmark to a Song

Starting from one of the four categories in the Music Archive
menu, you can continue sifting and finally reach a song-level
list view. Press the BOOKMARK button on the remote
control, or select Bookmark from the Tool menu. A sky-blue
arrow appears at the left of a song name that's currently
selected. It's the bookmark.
You can use the bookmark to mark songs for your specific
purpose, such as 'Theme Songs for My Life' or 'Songs for
the Next Party' or anything you want. To remove the
bookmark, once again move the selection (highlight) to the
song and press the BOOKMARK button on the remote
control or select Bookmark from the Submenu.
You can see a list of bookmarked songs by selecting
Bookmarks from the Music Archive menu.
From this list, you can selectively play bookmarked songs.
The Submenu commands let you view detailed information
for the current song, open its source album, organize the
current bookmark list by removing the bookmark from the
current song (the current song will disappear from the list),
and even save the current list as a new playlist (by naming it
as 'Theme Songs for My Life' if you like). In addition, you can
arrange the song order by editing the stored playlist.
n Because you can also add or remove the bookmark using the
relevant Submenu command in the Play Information screen, you can
decide to add or remove it while listening to each archived song.

Play Information and Controls

When you start playback of archived music from a group list
(a list view of artists, albums, genres or all songs), a Play
Information screen appears. This screen provides the unique
song data of the current song, such as the song title, audio
format, source album, performing artist and genre, as well as
the group from which you started playback. (Song data will
be shown in a different order depending on where song
playback is started.)

The Submenu commands in the Play Information screen for
archived songs:
Playback: Provides the same playback control functions as
available on the remote control. So, you can control the song
playback simply using the cursor controller on the front panel
or from a PS/2 keyboard (only with cursor and enter keys).
Group selection buttons (+/–) only work when you can
access the next or previous group, such as other albums
from the same artist or genre. On-screen group selection
buttons turn gray and don't work if you start playback from
All Songs.
Repeat: Select the repeat playback mode. Select Single
( ) to repeat a single song from the current group, or All
( ) to repeat all songs from the current group. Select OFF
to stop repeat playback.
Random: Turns the random playback mode on or off.
Group: Select Single to play only the current group, or All to
play all other groups in the same category.
Time view: Switches the playback time display between
elapsed or remaining time.
Bookmark: Adds or removes the bookmark to the current
song.
