MFLY-X

Chapter 4: Software: Getting Started

4.4 Content Management in MFLY-X

This section describes how to tell MFLY-X about your content and arrange it into playlists.

The User Interface Overview

Figure 4-2. User interface screen.

This is the content management pane of the MFLY-X Web site interface. Here you can add and organize your content. On the left

is the Library column, which shows a list of your Playlists. In the main part of the pane, you can see an icon-based view of all your

sources (or, if a playlist is selected on the left, the entries in that playlist, shown in the order that they will be played.

The icons will, if possible, be shown as a thumbnail preview, and if not, then as an icon representing the type of source. For a full

description of the icons and what they mean, see the Content Formats article. As your content library grows larger, you may want

to find particular items quickly. You can find an item by typing part of its name into the search box at the bottom of the pane,

and you can show only sources of a particular type by using the pull-down “Type” selector.

The other buttons at the bottom enable you to select the ordering of your sources in the display—either alphanumerically, or in

reverse chronological order (so the newer items appear first)—and switch between an icon-based view as shown in Figure 4-2

and a list view.

Adding New Sources

You can add new sources by clicking on the “ADD” button in the bottom right of the view. Choose from four main options when

adding new sources:

• Upload to MFLY-X—Your files are stored on our servers where they can only be accessed by your MFLY-X hardware.

• Bookmark a URL—You can enter the URL of a file or page on the Internet or your local Web server, and the MFLY-X hardware

will download it directly from the URL when required.
