Introduction Thank you for purchasing a Squeezebox network music player. This Owner's Manual includes setup and basic operating instructions for your new player. Since we're continually adding new software features, some of the more advanced capabilities of Squeezebox are not covered here. You can find additional information about the latest Squeezebox features, as well as detailed documentation for developers, on the Slim Devices web site, http://www. slimdevices. com/. [. . . ] (If there were some songs in your library by Led Zeppelin that weren't in the genre "Rock", those songs wouldn't be played. To play all songs by Led Zeppelin, you could browse by artist first and then press PLAY when Led Zeppelin was displayed. ) Note: If you want to scroll quickly, you can hold down the button.

Led Zeppelin/Houses Of The Holy (6 of 8) 06 D'yer Mak'er ! Squeezebox remembers the selection you were viewing the last time you browsed into this album, and opens the album on that selection. In this example, the Squeezebox automatically went back to song 6 on the album.
