marty,
mp3 playing (or wma for that matter) works like this (in UnleashX)...
1. create a folder on your E or F drive. (E:\music)
2. put whatever mp3 and wma file you want played in that directory. you can even have them in sub-directories, but not a good idea to get any deeper.
good example of the logical layout:
E:\music
E:\music\playlist1
E:\music\playlist1\song1.mp3
E:\music\playlist1\song2.mp3
E:\music\playlist1\song3.mp3
E:\music\playlist2
E:\music\playlist2\song1.mp3
E:\music\playlist2\song2.mp3
E:\music\playlist2\song3.mp3
3. once you have your files in place, goto System, Settings, Sound and Audio and point it to the E:\music directory and reboot. then you should be able to switch songs by holding down the White button and pressing left or right on the Dpad. if you are currently playing from the \playlist1\ directory and want to switch to the playlist2 directory, hold down the White button and press up or down on the Dpad.
NOTE: you can add more mp3/wma to these directories, but UX will not see/play them until after you reboot. if you want to delete some the songs, you have to re-point UX to another directory, reboot, then delete them, then re-point the directory back and reboot. of course, in the scenario above, if you were playing playlist1 and playlist2, but only wanted to play playlist1, you could just point to playlist1 (instead of E:\music) and then reboot.
