Archos AV340, AV320, AV380 user manual Using the Browser, Navigating the Directory Structure

4Using the Browser

The browser is used to navigate the fi le system on the AV300. The fi le system is FAT32, the same type of fi le system that is found on Windows® based computers. That is, it is a hierarchical system which includes folders and subfolders. Because you will be putting hundreds of fi les on your AV300, it is STRONGLY ADVISED that keep a neat and orderly fi le structure. Otherwise,

you will be spending time searching for fi les and not listening or watching them. We suggest that on the fi rst level of your fi le structure, you include the folders: Data, Music, Playlists, Photo, Video, and Voice.

The folders Music, Photo, and Video are special folders in that the icons on the main screen lead to these folders and then places you directly in that folder. If these folders are

deleted, you will be placed at the root level (highest level) of the directory hierarchy.

4.1Navigating the Directory Structure

Just below the top status bar, you can see the path to the directory you are currently viewing. The initial HD in the path name stands for Hard Disk.

ESC/STOP Ó Go back to the main startup menu.

Using the Browser

Go to the parent directory (go back up one level).

Move the cursor up and down to the previous or next fi le or folder.
