. Introduction
The functioning of the My Music Player and the My Music Player LE requires a referent media storage device
called Main Media. The player cannot work without a Main Media. Within the Main Media are stored the
music, audio and playlists files that will be played by the player. Within the Main Media are also stored the
timestamped programming file and any other useful files.
The various options of functionality of the player are set in motion with a precise organization of root folders
and sub-folders within the Main Media. Each folder pertains to a type of playback or a type of programming:
•
MUSIC folders for background music.
•
PLAYLIST folders for background music managed with playlists.
•
SPOT folders for Messages and Commercials.
•
SYSTEM folder for the timestamped programming file and advanced system files.

TMP folder to save the playback history files self generated by the player.
