Using Playlists

A playlist is a list of digital media files that play in a specified order. By using playlists, you can group audio and
video files together for convenient playback.

In the desktop Player, you can create a playlist of media files and synchronize the desktop Player with your
device.

In Windows Media Player on your device, your playlists are available in the Library under the My Playlists
category. There is also a temporary playlist, called Now Playing, which lists the currently playing file, as well
as any files that have been queued up to play next. You can create a new playlist on your device by saving the
current Now Playing playlist and by giving it a new name.

To save a new playlist:

1. If you are not on the Library screen, tap Menu > Library.

2. Tap to select a category (for example, My Music or My Playlists).

3. Select a media file that you want, and then tap Menu > Queue Up. This adds the file to the Now

Playing list.

Repeat this step until you have added all desired media files to the Now Playing list.

Note:

You cannot select multiple files simultaneously.

4. After adding the media files, tap Menu > Now Playing.

5. On the Now Playing screen, tap Menu > Save Playlist.

6. Enter the playlist name and then tap Done.

7. To play back the playlist you created, tap My Playlists in the Library, select your playlist, and then tap

Play.
