Music

For convenient access to your music collection, click Music on the Arcade homepage to open the Music homepage.

Acer Arcade allows you to view your music library using a number of categories, these include Album, Genre, Artist, Playlist and All Songs.

Select the folder, CD or category that contains the music you want to listen to. Click Play to listen to the entire content from the beginning, or select the song that you want to hear from the list in the content area.

The songs in the folder are shown in the content area, while the left side has controls for "Play," "Shuffle" and "Repeat All." The Visualize option allows you to watch computer generated visuals while you listen to music. When playing music, the control panel at the bottom of the page makes it easy to adjust the volume and control playback.
