online streaming service.
Within the scope of this brief introduction, we shall
explore Media Player.
Media Player
Clicking or tapping Media Player from the
Dashboard takes you to the Media Player where
you will spend the most time enjoying your music.
Note that our web application is fully responsive
and re-orients itself depending on landscape or
portrait orientation of your device. For brevity,
illustrations below are for landscape orientation.
The Media Player can be understood by recognizing
four distinct areas: Transport Control (the horizontal
header), and the three vertical columns beneath it.
Left to right, they are the Now Playing area which
is your current queue, Current Track which shows
album art, artist, song title, album name, and
resolution for the currently playing song, and Add
Files which provides hierarchical access to your
music library.
Now Playing
To play music, add music from your library to the
queue. You can browse your music sorted into
folders just like it is organized on your drive, or by
select metadata tags such as artist name or album
name.
You can add entire artist collections, single albums,
single tracks or a combination thereof to the cue to
form a playlist. Simply click or tap the + icon beside
any field, folder, or track name to add that item and
all music contained beneath it to the queue. The
illustration above shows 9 tracks from an album in
the queue.
Once tracks are placed into the Now Playing
queue, they can be reordered or removed from
the queue entirely. Click or tap-and-hold the track
number then drag it into the desired position in the
queue to reorder or onto the Now Playing area to
remove. To clear the entire playlist, click or tap the
Clear instruction beneath the track timeline in the
Transport Control area.
Stored Playlists
Store any Now Playing queue for future
recall by clicking SAVE in the Now Playing
area. Title the playlist and click Save.
Recall saved
playlists by
clicking Playlists
in the Add Files
area.
Alternate
Views
Clicking
brings up the
Song View which
displays a table
of information for songs in the current queue.
