8 – Editing playlists

Overview of playlist editing

Whenever you load an SD card, CF card or USB flash drive into

this unit for the first time, one empty playlist is automatically

created on that media. You can also create new playlists.

Opening the playlist screen

You can view playlists from the

BROWSE

screen.

When you have format media using this unit, a file named

"Playlist001" will be created automatically in the Playlist folder,

which is in the first level of the ROOT folder. You can also create

new playlists inside the Playlist folder. (See “Creating a new

playlist” on page 48.)

The following procedures explain how to view "Playlist001,"

which was automatically created when the media was formatted.
