Add Mediamark Dialog
Mediamarks Manager

Mediamarks are akin to bookmarks in a web browser. Mediamarks can be used to keep track of often-played media files for quick retrieval later. Xfmedia includes a mediamarks manager that can be used to create a folder hierarchy that can allow for quick access to media files as well as internet radio streams. Anything that Xfmedia can play can be mediamarked.

Add Mediamark Dialog

To add a mediamark, right click on an entry in the playlist and select "Add Mediamark", or right-click anywhere else in the main window and select "Mediamarks->Add Current Stream". The Add Mediamark dialog will appear:

                            The Add Mediamark dialog.

The Name and Location boxes will be pre-filled with the name and location of the current entry, but can be edited if desired. The "File in" box can be used to arrange mediamarks in folders. To create a new folder, select the folder in the box where the new folder should be inserted, type a name for the folder, and click "Add Folder". Select the folder that should contain the new mediamark and click "Add Mediamark". The new mediamark will appear in the right-click menu in the main window.
