There are 10 favorites that can be set. You can assign
favorite tracks, albums, playlists, genres, artists or
channels. When you select an album, playlist, genre, or
artist, a playlist of available tracks is created at the time
you add the favorite. If you add or remove tracks from the
album, playlist, genre, or artist you will need to add it as a
favorite again to update it.
Track
Individual tracks can be assigned to favorites so
that the desired track plays when selected.
Album
Entire albums can be added by selecting the
album as a favorite. When the favorite is played, the
entire album will be added to the Now Playing Queue.
Artist
Adding an artist creates a playlist of every
track available from the selected artist on the selected
media at the time the favorite is created.
For example, if you select an artist in Audiolounge, a
playlist will be created containing their entire catalog
of songs available at the time the selection is made.
Any time that you select this Favorite, this playlist
will be added to the Now Playing Queue. If the artist
releases a new song or album and you want to add it
to the existing favorite, simply overwrite the existing
favorite by adding this artist as a favorite again.
If you select an artist from your iPod, a playlist will be
created containing all of the tracks from the selected
Player/Wireless-N Music Extender
Playing Your Music with the Cisco Media Software
This option will add the
artist located on your iPod at the time that the favorite
is created. Playing the favorite will add these tracks to
the Now Playing Queue. If you add additional songs
from the artist to your iPod and want to add them
to the existing favorite, simply overwrite the existing
favorite by adding this artist as a favorite again.
Playlist
Playlists can be assigned to a favorite for easy
selection. When the favorite is created it generates a
new playlist for the favorite based upon the selected
playlist.
If a song is added or deleted from the selected playlist
after it has been added as a favorite, the changes
aren't reflected in the favorite unless you overwrite
the existing favorite by adding the playlist as a favorite
again.
Genre
Adding a genre creates a playlist of every track
available from the selected genre on the selected
media at the time the favorite is created.
For example, if you have a USB drive attached and
select the Alternative genre on the USB drive, a playlist
will be created that contains all of the music on the
USB drive that is tagged as alternative.
Channel
A channel can be designated as a favorite
for quick and easy selection of a favorite RadioTime
channel. You can not add music to the Now Playing
Queue when a channel is playing since the channel is
continuously playing music.
To create a favorite using the Cisco Media Player software,
perform the following steps:
1. Locate and highlight the track, album, playlist, genre,
artist, or radio station that you want to set as a
favorite.
2. Drag the selected content to the desired Favorite
number in the Favorites window in the lower left
corner of the screen.
