SoundBridge automatically builds a song queue every time you select a song or album to play.
This section will tell you how to build a song queue, review a song queue and erase a song queue.
Building a Song QueueLet’s say you would now like to choose several different songs or selecti ons to play in a row.
This is called building a “Song Queue.” SoundBridge automatically b uilds a new Song Queue
every time you select a song or album to play. You can add to that list by navigating to your
preferred music and pressing Add [+]. The selection wi ll be added to the end of the current
Song Queue.
You may add a single song, an entire album, all songs by an artist, all songs in a genre, or any
search result — just browse to the selection you prefer and press Add [+] . For example, if
you would like to play all songs by Coldplay, select Home menu > Browse > Browse artists.
Navigate to Coldplay in your artist list and press Add [+]. All songs on all albums by Cold play
will be played in the order they appear on each album. See “Browse” and “S earch” for more
information.
You have several other options for building a Song Queue. After you press Select whil e
browsing on a song, a “Song” menu appears with the following options :
Play Songs, Starting Wi th selected song name (and clear p revious Song Queue)
Get Song Info
Play Song (and clear p revious Song Que ue)
Add Song to Song Queu e (same as pressing th e Add [+] button)
The first, “Play Songs” option is described in the section above — it s tarts playing your album
(or other browsed list), beginning with the current track .
If you choose “Play Song” on any track in your selection, the entire list is adde d to the Song
Queue, but playback starts on the chosen track. If you have the Re peat [ ] option selected,
the earlier tracks in the queue will play after the last song. If yo u have the Shuffle [ ] option
selected, then the chosen track will play first, followed by all the othe r tracks in the list in
random order.
The “Add song to Song Queue” option behaves similarly to the Add [+] button— it places the
current song at the end of your playlist.
You can add an almost unlimited number of songs to your Song Queue. Each selectio n will be
played in the order it was entered (unless you have chosen to Shuffle your Song Queue ).
Hint: After you have selected multiple songs to b e played in turn, you can use the “Next
Track” 9 and “Previous Track” : buttons to skip from song to song in your Song Queue.
Reviewing a Song QueueAt any point, you can review what’s in your Song Queue by pressing the Down ▽ arrow from
the Now Playing screen, which is the default screen that appears while SoundBr idge is playing.
The Now Playing screen looks something like this:
Don’t Panic 0:10/2:17 4
Coldplay Parachutes (200 0) (|||------)
Alternatively, you can press Home Menu [ ], then select the “Show Song Queue” option . You
will see the entire list of songs in your song queue; refer to the scroll bar o n the right side of the
screen to determine where in the list you are located. Press the Up/Dow n arrows △ ▽ to see
the entire list of selections in your Song Queue. The currently playing s election is indicated by a
speaker X)).
You cannot save a Song Queue that you have created — it’s only held in memory temporarily
until you build your next Song Queue. If you would like to build a Song Que ue that you can
save, please build a Playlist in your music jukebox software (see “Playin g a Saved Playlist”
below).
When the Song Queue has played all the way through, it will stop (unless repeat has b een
selected). You will see the Stop icon < on the right side of your display. To start playing your
Song Queue again at the beginning, press the Play button.
Erasing a Song Queue If you decide you don’t want to play the Song Queue you’ve just created, simply selec t
something else to play. Navigate to another selection (song, playlist, etc. ) and press Select [4]
or Play [�] (not Add [+]). This selection immediately replaces your o ld Song Queue.
