 Music player mode - Playlist operation 

 

6.1  Music Player function 

Replay works just like a standard player in this mode (Vlink free) and does not require any 
specific programming (or playlist file). Any MP3 file can be played, even with long 
names.The tracks will be played in the sequence in which they are memorised in the flash 
memory; if a block of data is transferred then the written sequence in the flash memory will 
depend on the operating system used; if a precise sequence is preferred, then we 
recommend transferring one MP3 file at a time. 
In this mode, Replay will automatically start to play the audio file, starting from the first 
track, when the device is switched on or when the flash memory is inserted; the user can 
run through the files just like listening to an audio CD by using the buttons on the front of 
the device.

 IMPORTANT

:

 

 

When the Stop button is pressed, Replay memorises the track currently being played; 
press Play and Replay will play the track from the beginning. This function enables very 
long file sequences in large flash memories to be played, without having to re-listen to the 
entire sequence from the first track. 
If you wish to listen to the entire sequence again starting from the first track, just remove 
the flash memory of turn the Replay off and on again.

 

  

6.2 Introduction to playlist mode operation 

Replay reproduces in sequence the MP3 files contained in the file 

playlist.txt

 (or 

name.

m3u

 or else depending on the day of the week in the files  

1.m3u-->7.m3u

see 

below

).

 

These are simple text files containing the list of MP3 audio files, to be reproduced 

in the desired sequence. During the reproduction, the 4 command keys REW, STOP, 
PLAY and FWD are enabled. 
When the Compact Flash is introduced, Replay analyses its content on the base of the 
presence of the relevant files, and automatically sets the following operation mode: 

 

1. 

FILE PLAYLIST:TXT or NAME.M3U:

 audio reproducer with pieces in sequence 

according to the list present in the files. 

2. 

FILE 1.M3U, 2.M3U, 3.M3U, 4.M3U, 5.M3U, 6.M3U, 7.M3U:

 audio reproducer of 

the sequence contained in the files depending on the day of the week : 
1.pal=Monday, 2.pal=Tuesday, 3.pal=Wednesday, 4.pal=Thursday, 5.pal=Friday, 
6.pal=Saturday, 7.pal=Sunday.
