Audio Manager and Music Player
Audio Manager
Audio Manager is a central location where you can access your music files and
play them back. Audio Manager automatically searches your device (My Documents
folder and its subfolders and folders in your storage card if available) for music files
then organizes them into categories such as artist or album based on metadata
(if available) of the music file. Create custom playlists for your favorite
songs, then use the integrated Music Player to play them back.
