Browsing Your Music by Album

From the Home Menu, press the Down ▽ button until you see the “Browse” option highlighted
and press Select [4]. You will see a list of options:

Ë

Browse Artists

Browse Albums

If you scroll down, you will see these browsing options:

Browse Songs

Browse Genres

Browse Composers

Now, if you navigate to the “Browse Albums” option and press Select [4], you will see an
alphabetical listing of Albums found in your music library. The screen will look something
like this:

Ë

Parachutes

Paul’s Boutique

Navigate to the album that you want to hear using the Up/Down △ ▽ arrow buttons — in our
example, “Parachutes.” Or, for faster browsing, press the right arrow to skip ahead in the album
list to the next letter of the alphabet. When the album you want is selected, press the Select [4]
button for a listing of songs found on this album.

Ë

Don’t Panic

Shiver

The music note

next to each song name indicates the selection is an individual track (and not

a playlist, album or other collection of songs).

Note: Songs purchased from the Apple Music Store will be displayed with a padlock œ icon.
SoundBridge is not able to play back these “locked” files — they will simply be skipped during
playback.

Use the Up/Down △ ▽ arrows again to highlight the song you want to play. Press the Play []
button (or press the Select button twice) to start that song playing. When the song begins
playback, the display will switch to the “Now Playing” screen, which looks something like this:

Don’t Panic 0:10/2:17 4

Coldplay - Parachutes (2000) (|||------)

Please note that the artist and album information may be abbreviated, or appear one line
at a time, if the total number of characters exceeds what can be displayed at once. See the
“Settings” chapter at the end of this manual for more information on display options.

Hint: If you would like to go back to the above “Now Playing” screen at any time in order
to see what’s playing, press Back [] several times until you see this screen. Alternatively,
press Home Menu [

], then scroll down to the “Show Now Playing” option and press

Select [4]. This screen also appears by default after a few minutes of inactivity on the
remote control.

If you press Play [] on an album track, that track will play, followed by each track remaining on
the album. For example, if you press Play on track #5 on an album containing 10 tracks, then
