Playback

Groups

The MusicCAST server lets you playback songs with various associations. The following associations, called
Groups, are available:
• Album
• Artist
• Genre
• Playlist
• Bookmark, All songs
• Recorded songs
• Song Statistics
The selection criteria you use to choose a song for playback also defines the playback group. Using the library
screens to choose selection criteria to listen to selects all songs within the selected group for playback. For
example, selecting an album for playback sets "all songs of album" as the playback group and plays back all
songs in the album. Playback continues in the order the songs are registered or in alphabetical order, depending
on the playback group setting, but the playback group also defines the limits within which the Random Playback
(see page 47), Repeat Playback (see page 46), Group skip (see page 45), and song skip (see page 43) functions
operate.
You can check the current playback group on the Play Information screen (see page 39). Press PLAY INFO.
