Hint: Information about your music, including Song Name, Artist, Album, and Genre is
usually created automatically by the software you used to save your audio CD files on
your computer’s hard drive (also know as ripping). This process creates data called “ID3
tags” to describe each track. If this data is missing from your audio files, they will not
appear when you browse by that data category. If you need to edit your ID3 tags, or if
you are not satisfied with the description of genres (or other data) assigned to your music
file, it is possible to edit that data in iTunes, Windows Media Player or other supported
music jukebox programs.
Note: In iTunes, select the file(s) to edit, click on File/Get info, and then click on the Info
tab).

Search Options
To search for a specific selection by spelling it out, you can press the Search [? ] button
on your remote control, or navigate down to the “Search” option from the Home Menu.
Either way, you will have the following options:
Search for albums
Search for artists
Search for titles
Search keywords
Press the
Select
[v]
button on the option you would like to search with. Then, use your
Left/Right ? ? arrows on the remote control to enter characters for spelling your
selection and then press the
Select
[v]
button. When you are done spelling, use the Down
button to go to the OK option and press the
▽
Select
[v]
button. If you make a mistake,
use the Down
button to go to the Delete option and press the
▽
Select
[v]
button.
Hint
: Partial spelling is OK — the Search function searches for letters anywhere in the
word, as opposed to just at the beginning. For example, to search for Radiohead, you can
enter any combination of letters found in the word (“RA,” “DI,” “HE,” etc.), and the
results will return all Artists containing those letters (e.g., if you enter “DI” you’ll get
Radiohead, India Arie, and Diana Krall).
When you find the music you like, use the Add button to add it to your Song Queue. If
searching for albums or artists, you can press the
Select
[v]
button to navigate down one
level to individual tracks.
If an exact match is not found, your results will show an empty search.
