At any time during playback, you can press
the voice button and ask the system what is

(if populated) of the current track.

(what's | what is) playing [now] | (what

| which) (song | track | artist) is this |

(who's | who is) playing | (what's | what

___ is a dynamic listing, meaning that it
could be the name of anything, such as a
group, artist or song. For example you
could say "Play artist The Beatles".

Examples of USB Commands

SYNC provides the user with many intuitive
ways to find and play a song using voice.
For example, if we have a song called
"Penny Lane" from the album "Magical
Mystery Tour" we can say the following to
play this song:

•

Play song "Penny Lane".

•

Play "Penny Lane".

If we wanted to play the entire album, we
can say:

•

Play album "Magical Mystery Tour".

•

Play "Magical Mystery Tour".

Repeat track

You can play similar types of music to the current playlist
from the USB port. The system uses the metadata informa-
tion of each track to compile a playlist. The system then
creates a new list of similar tracks and then begins playing.
Each track must have the metadata tags populated for this
feature. With certain playing devices, if your metadata tags

are not populated, the tracks will not be available in voice
recognition, the play menu or this option. However, if you
place these tracks onto your playing device in mass storage
device mode they are available in voice recognition, the play
menu or this option. The system places unknowns into any
unpopulated metadata tag.
