Play list handling
The D1000X can be used to play a single file or to play files from a play list. Before you
make a “play list card”, make sure that it's empty by formatting it. A play list card should only
ever contain the sound files (starting with the letter 'P') included in the play lists and the play
list files themselves.
To generate a play list, click on “New list” and “Add” to add the desired file. Please note that
if the files you wish to play will be copied from the PC onto the CF card, they have to follow
the name convention described in the section “Playing files”, i.e. they must have a name of
the type Pxxxxx.wav, where xxxxx is a 5-digit number. You must rename the desired files to
follow this convention before copying them onto the CF card. The name of the play list file
should have a maximum of six characters. The D1000X Utility automatically adds the
extension .LST to the name you selected.
To transfer the saved play list file to the CF card, you should first make sure you have a
freshly formatted CF card in the selected drive. Then click “Transfer file” and select the file to
transfer. Please note that this only transfers the play list file to the CF card. If the required
wav files are not already present on the CF card, the user should copy these files to the CF
card using e.g. Windows Explorer.
The D1000X will indicate that you are using a card with play lists by displaying the text
“PLAYLIST CARD” during the booting phase after the system is turned on.
