Play Music

The Music Library manages all songs stored in the database. Technically, based on the ID3 t ag of MP3, songs can be categorized and accessed by Artist , Album, Genre, Year, Track and Playlist . If the ID3 tag of a song is missing, then this particular song will be categorized under “Unknown”in both Artist and Album.

For songs in the MP3 format and recorded from the line-in source, they are grouped under “MP3-Record”in Artist and Album. You can find a “Line-in”

folder when you connect the PD-1000 t o your computer **.
