Use playlists
A playlist is a list of digital media files that play in a specified order. By using
playlists, you can group audio and video files together for convenient playback.
In the desktop Player, you can create a playlist of media files and synchronise
the desktop Player with your Ameo. For more information about synchronising
media, see “Copy media files to your Ameo” earlier in this chapter.
In Windows Media Player Mobile on your Ameo, your playlists are available in the
Library under the My Playlists category. There is also a temporary playlist, called
Now Playing, which lists the currently playing file, as well as any files that have
been queued up to play next. You can create a new playlist on your Ameo by
saving the current Now Playing playlist and by giving it a new name.
