• Create or Load the off-line playlist on the Playlist Panel and then right-click the
Channel Name field and select a channel.
• Select a channel on the Playlist Panel first and then drag a playlist from the

The playlist receives a LSM ID which appears in the LSM ID field of the Playlist
Panel as well as in the LSM ID column of the Database Explorer.
