This function allows you to select by artist and track, but also by album, genre, etc.; this selection depends on the structure of the music archive and on the UPnP server software in use (e.g. Nero Media Home, Windows Media Player 11). Access times can lengthen depending on the size of the music archive, and this make usage inconvenient. While the UPnP server is importing the complete music archive, the device can only be operated in a limited fashion, if at all.

You can select a track by the ID3 tag information (track, artists, album, genre etc.). This information is displayed during playback. It is recommended that you maintain this ID3 tag information.
