ARCHOS 43 USER MANUAL the music called Favorites. To remove an item from your favorites list, roll it into view and then hold your finger down on it and choose Remove from favorites. 10.2. Music playback The music playback screen includes the standard playback controls. You can tap on the progression bar to go directly to a different location in the song. The previous and next buttons can be tapped once to jump to the beginning of the current song or jump to the next song, or held down to reverse or advance rapidly through the current song. The icons to the right of the album cover do the following: - Switch to the music selection screen - View the current play list* - Choose between repeating all songs in the current list, just one, and not repeating. Using the menu , you can choose additional items such as the Audio Settings (shown to the right) or Party Shuffle. Selecting the party shuffle will create a playlist of several songs from the entire music library. The idea is that while the list is playing, you can add more songs (find the desired song, long hold on the item, and then select Add to playlist > Current playlist) and it will add it to the end of the current party shuffle. Or, if you do nothing, the player will just add songs as needed to keep the party going. * In the list, it is possible to change the position of the upcoming songs by holding down on the icon on the left of the song and dragging it to the desired position. 10.3.
