About the Screens and Menus
Windows Media Player has three primary screens:
Playback screen. The default screen that displays the
playback controls (such as Play, Pause, Next, Previous, and
Volume) and the video window.
Now Playing screen. The screen that displays the Now
Playing playlist. This special playlist indicates the current
file being played and any files that are “queued up” to play
next.
Library screen. The screen that lets you quickly find your
audio files, video files, and playlists. It contains categories
such as My Music, My Videos, My TV, and My Playlists.
At the bottom of each screen, you can open a Menu. The
commands on this menu vary, depending upon which
screen you are viewing. For more information about the
commands in these menus, see Help on your device.
About Licenses and Protected Files
Some content (such as digital media files downloaded from
the Internet, CD tracks, and videos) have associated licenses
that protect them from being unlawfully distributed or shared.
Licenses are created and managed by using digital rights
management (DRM), which is the technology for securing content
and managing its access rights. Some licenses may prevent you
from playing files that have been copied to your device. Files that
have licenses associated with them are called “protected files.”
If you want to copy a protected file from your PC to your device,
use the desktop player to synchronize the file to your device
(instead of dragging the file from a folder on your PC to a folder
on your device, for example). This will ensure that the license is
copied along with the protected file. For more information about
synchronizing files to your device and other mobile devices, see
desktop player Help.
Note:
You can view the protection status for a file by checking its
file properties (tapping Menu > Properties).
