Playing Music
The Home Theater Music Jukebox puts your entire music collection at your fingertips. In this section you’ll learn how to navigate the Music Player screen
and sort, select, and listen to your favorite music. It’s as simple as cuing up something from your library, or putting in a CD to add something new to your
collection. You’ll learn more about how to record new music to your library in the next section, but for now let’s look at how the player works.
Some Terms and Definitions You’ll See in the Following Chapters
There may be a few terms used in the next few chapters you may not be familiar with. Take a minute to familiarize yourself with them.
Playlist — Your customized collection of songs that you can set in any order or include any song.
Track — An individual song.
Group — Think of this as a collection of musical genres (Country, Rock, Classical, etc.).
Title — Think of this as a complete CD album (including every track on the CD, for example).
MP3 track — A track you have recorded or “ripped” from a CD and is stored on the Music Jukebox’s hard drive.

Navigating the Music Player Screen
•
The Music Player screen appears whenever you insert a CD or select a track from the
Music Guide.
•
Arrow buttons - Use the up and down arrow buttons to move the highlight from one
track to another. The right and left buttons are not used on the Music Player screen.

playing the highlighted track. You can also play the track by pressing the PLAY button.

beginning or end of a track is reached. An on-screen status appears each time the
button is pressed.
There are a number of ways to play music:
•
Open the disc tray and insert an audio CD. The Music Jukebox plays the CD, connects to
the internet to identify the disc, loads the information into the music library, displays
the track list, title artist, and cover art in the Music Player View.
•
Use the GUIDE button on the remote. The Music Jukebox displays the Music Guide View
so that you can navigate and select an item.
