About the screens and menus

Windows Media® Player Mobile has three primary screens:

Playback screen. The screen that displays the playback controls (such as Play, Pause, Next, Previous, and Volume) and the video window. You can change the appearance of this screen by choosing a different skin.

Now Playing screen. The screen that displays the Now Playing playlist. This special playlist indicates the current file being played and any files that are “queued up” to play next.

Library screen. The screen that lets you quickly find your audio files, video files, and playlists. It contains categories such as My Music, My Videos, My TV, and My Playlists.

At the bottom of each screen, you can open a Menu. The commands on this menu vary, depending upon which screen you are viewing. For more information about the commands in these menus, see Help on your XV6900.
