Common Uses

•• Album  Entire albums can be added by selecting the album as a favorite. When the favorite is played, the entire album will be added to the Now Playing Queue.

•• Artist  Adding an artist creates a playlist of every track available from the selected artist on the selected media at the time the favorite is created.

For example, if you select an artist in Rhapsody, a playlist containing their entire catalog at the time of the selection will be created. Any time that you select this Favorite, this playlist will be added to the Now Playing Queue. If the artist releases a new song or album and you want to add it to the existing favorite, simply overwrite the existing favorite by adding this artist as a favorite again.

If you select an artist from your iPod, a playlist will be created containing all of the tracks from the selected artist located on your iPod at the time that the favorite is created. Playing the favorite will add these tracks to the Now Playing Queue. If you add additional songs from the artist to your iPod and want to add them to the existing favorite, simply overwrite the existing favorite by adding this artist as a favorite again.

•• Playlist  Playlists can be assigned to a favorite for easy selection. When the favorite is created it generates a new playlist for the favorite based upon the selected playlist.

If a song is added or deleted from the selected playlist after it has been added as a favorite, the changes aren’t reflected in the favorite unless you overwrite the existing favorite by adding the playlist as a favorite again.

•• Genre  Adding a genre creates a playlist of every track available from the selected genre on the selected media at the time the favorite is created.

For example, if you have a USB drive attached and select the Alternative genre on the USB drive, a playlist will be created that contains all of the music on the USB drive that is tagged as alternative.

•• Channel  A channel can be designated as a favorite for quick and easy selection of a favorite Rhapsody or RadioTime channel. You can not add music to the Now Playing Queue when a channel is playing since the channel is continuously playing music.

To create a favorite, perform the following steps:

1.Using the Controller, locate and highlight the track, album, playlist, genre, or artist that you want to set as a favorite.

2.Press right on the Scroll/5Way button.

3.Select Add to Favorites on the touchscreen or use the Scroll/5-Way button to select it.

4.Use the Scroll/5-Way Button to select a favorite position. There are ten favorites available.

NOTE: If you select a favorite that is currently in use, it will be overwritten with the new favorite.
