Creative NOMAD Zen XTRA manual Organizing your Music, Using Music Library

Organizing your Music

Using the

Music

Library

To transfer audio tracks to NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra’s Music Library, see "Using Creative MediaSource" on page 4-2.

Modifying or renaming albums, artists, or genres must be done in Creative MediaSource. Only Selected Playlists can be renamed in the player.

To effectively manage the music in your player, you should be familiar with what the Music Library, Selected Music List and Playlists are. These will be described extensively in the following sections:

❍"Using the Music Library" on page 3-9

❍"Using the Selected Music List" on page 3-16

When audio tracks are transferred to your player, they are organized into the following Music Library categories:

❍Playlists

❍Albums

❍Artists

❍Genres

❍All Tracks

All transferred tracks can be found in the "All Tracks" category, but depending on your Creative MediaSource settings, tracks can also be found in other categories. For example, take a fictitious track called "Toffee Apple Smile", performed by "The Nano Singers", from the soundtrack to the movie "The Big Sneeze". Besides "All Tracks", the "Toffee Apple Smile" song would also be found in the "Soundtrack" genre, the "Songs from The Big Sneeze" album, and the "The Nano Singers" artist category.

Tracks not belonging to any album, artist, or genre can only be found in the “Unknown” category. You can use the Music Library to:

❍Add audio selections to the Selected Music List

❍Find tracks, playlists, albums, artists or genres

❍View track information

❍Delete tracks, playlists, albums, artists or genres

❍Preview a track
