Media selection

Whether you access your fi les using Windows Shares or using UPnP, the 
fi le selection mechanisms are the same. The only difference between the 
two methods is that when using UPnP you will generally have a wider 
choice of search criteria, as determined by the UPnP server software on 
your computer. Some third party server applications allow customisation 
of the search criteria and indexing methods, which can be useful if you 
have a very large collection of stored music fi les.

The selection mechanism allows you to search by a given information 
type (Album, Artist, etc.) and then to narrow the search, either just to an 
album or to a particular track within an album. The selected album or 
track is then added to a queue of tracks to be played. You can add more 
albums or tracks to the queue while music is playing, or you can jump 
between tracks in the queue. You can also clear the queue if you wish 
to make a fresh selection. The searches described here are examples of 
the possibilities available.
