2.1 THE ARCLIBRARY AND THE MUSIC BROWSER
There are two types of views for you to browse through your songs:
the ARCLibrary
the Music Browser
When browsing through your music, only music files are shown.
THE ARCLIBRARY
the ArcLibrary (default view) shows
your music sorted in categories
(Artist, Album, Title, Genre, etc.) if
your music files contain these tags.
When new music is added to the
Music folder of the ARCHOS, the
ARCLibrary will need to be updated.
By default, this is done automatical-
ly, but you can choose to do it manu-
ally via the ‘Update ARCLibrary’
option in the ARCLibrary (also see:
System Settings
).
If some of your music files do not contain tags, they will be classified as
‘(Unknown)’ in the ARCLibrary.
THE MUSIC BROWSER
the music browser allows you to
navigate the Music folder of your
device’s hard drive. It is based on
the Archos File Browser.
To use it, highlight ‘Browse Hard
Drive’ in the initial ArcLibrary view
and press
OK
.
