How Audio Files Are Organized
My Music groups audio files on the memory card into
folders and lists. Unless the phone determines a file is
a podcast, it treats all audio files as songs.
When you access My Music, you see that the audio
files are grouped into these folders:
³
Songs
— All audio files on the memory card (except
podcasts), listed alphabetically by title.
³
Playlists
— Folders and lists you have created. The
default playlist is Favorites.
³
Albums
— Songs grouped by album title.
³
Artists
— Songs grouped by alphabetically by artist
and title.
³
Genres
— Songs grouped by genre.
³
Podcasts
— Podcast episodes grouped alphabetically
by program. Episodes are sorted by date.
³
Other
— Other songs group alphabetically.
If there is not enough album, artist, or genre data
associated with a file, it is grouped as “Unknown”.
Naming Audio Files
File names can include up to 255 characters, including
the file format extension (for example, mp3). Only the
first 32 characters will be displayed. If a file name is
longer than 255 characters, it will not be visible on the
player and cannot be played. In this case, you will need
to rename the file and resave it to the memory card.
