Lists

The

Lists

panel features an editable channel list for use with the optional IR remote control

(see

IR Remote Control

on page 56), a drag and drop favorites list for convenient

access of frequently played files, and the playback history. By default the player page opens
with the

Lists

panel expanded to the right of the browser.

NOTE: M3U, M3U8, and PLS playlist formats do not support Playlist Title or Playlist

Creator metadata. Text entered in those fields is not retained. If that information is
required for your application, use .jspf or .xspf playlist format.

The

Lists

panel has three tabs:

Channels

Favorites

and

History

(see figure 19).

and channel Universal Resource Identifier (URI). To assign a stream, file, or playlist to a
channel, select and drag an item from the browser
