Win8:media Player Music Management

Set up a play list

First we want to open Windows Media Player, go to "all apps" in the Start screen right-click Space, and then find Windows Media Player under Windows Accessories, which is installed automatically when we install the system. We need to do some setup for the first time, of course you can also choose the recommended settings directly.

Initial Setup Recommendation recommendation

After entering Windows Media Player we will see that the software has automatically synchronized the media files in our computer, including music, videos and pictures, and today we are talking about music. If we had chosen the recommended configuration, we would have seen that the software was getting the content of music from the Internet, including singers, genres and even album covers.

Music is automatically imported into the Media Library

We're about to start creating a new playlist after the music is synchronized. First we click on the "playlist" on the left sidebar and click "Click here" in the middle of the button. At this time we will see the left "playlist" below has generated a new list, now we want to rename the list is really built.

Create playlists and rename

When the playlist is finished, how do you add a song to it? Very simple, this is we go back to the music catalog, and then put the songs we want to listen directly to the left sidebar to build a good playlist name on it. So a new content playlist is completely built.

Drag Songs to playlist

In addition, Windows Media player also supports the burn feature, which allows you to burn your favorite music to a disc for permanent preservation, if you have to have a professional burner.

Sync to a mobile device

Of course, if you want to transplant files from your computer to your mobile device, such as Windows Phone, then Windows Media Player also provides sync, so let's see what we can do.

First connect the device to the computer, and then click "Sync" in the upper-right corner so that a function window on the right opens, where we can see the devices that are now connected. The device name also appears on the left column.

Move a file or playlist to a sync list

When the file is selected, Windows Media Player automatically synchronizes the files to the mobile device by clicking Start Sync on the right window. After the synchronization is complete, we can also view the sync status or delete the synchronized content.
