Operation
As mentioned in the basic operation of player section, if you simply
want to auto play and auto loop files, you just need to load them onto
a SD or USB drive and insert into the player. Upon power up, the player
will begin to play and continue to loop the files contained. The follow-
ing sections explain how the menu and settings function.
