About the screens and menus
Windows Media Player has three primary screens:
• Playback screen. The default screen that displays the playback
controls (such as Play, Pause, Next, Previous, and Volume) and
the video window. You can change the appearance of this screen
by choosing a different skin.
• Now Playing screen. The screen that displays the Now Playing
playlist. This special playlist indicates the current file being played
and any files that are “queued up” to play next.
• Library screen. The screen that lets you quickly find your audio
files, video files, and playlists. It contains categories such as My
Music, My Videos, My TV, and My Playlists.
At the bottom of each screen, you can open a Menu. The commands
on this menu vary, depending upon which screen you are viewing. For
more information about the commands in these menus, see Help on
your device.
About licenses and protected files
Some content (such as digital media files downloaded from the
Internet, CD tracks, and videos) have associated licenses that protect
them from being unlawfully distributed or shared. Licenses are created
and managed by using digital rights management (DRM), which is the
technology for securing content and managing its access rights. Some
licenses may prevent you from playing files that have been copied to
your device. Files that have licenses associated with them are called
“protected files.”
If you want to copy a protected file from your PC to your device, use
the desktop Player to synchronize the file to your device (instead of
dragging the file from a folder on your PC to a folder on your device,
for example). This will ensure that the license is copied along with the
protected file. For more information about synchronizing files to your
device and other mobile devices, see desktop Player Help.
Note You can view the protection status for a file by checking its file
properties (tapping Menu > Properties).
