45 12 BROWSER - Using the Browser The browser is used to navigate the file system on the Gmini™ 500. The file system is FAT32, the same type of file system that is found on Windows® based computers. That is, it is a hierarchical system which includes folders and subfolders. Because you will be putting hundreds of files on your Gmini™ 500, it is STRONGLY ADVISED that you keep a neat and orderly file structure. Otherwise, you will be spending time searching for files and not listening or watching them. ARCHOS™ recommends that you keep the factory created folders: Data, Music, Playlists, Video, and Pictures. The folders Music, Pictures, and Video are special folders in that the icons on the main screen lead to these folders and then places you directly in that folder. If these folders are deleted or renamed, you will be taken to the root level (highest level) of the directory hierarchy. 45 46 12.1 Navigating the Directory Structure To navigate the directory structure you will use: ENTER: Open the highlighted folder (directory) or Play the highlighted file. ESC/STOP x : Go back to the main menu. Move the cursor up and down to the previous or next file or folder. RIGHT: Open the currently highlighted folder. LEFT: Go back up one level in the folder hierarchy. Example: Go from folder Gmini500/Music/ Wes Burden/ to Gmini500/Music. 46
