Using the Search Mode
The Search mode is a powerful tool to find specific songs, albums or artists within your I-Mix music
collection. Use the Search mode to find and play music in your collection. (Use Intelligent CD
Recognition to attach names to albums and songs from the database.) You can instruct the I-Mix to search
your music collection by artist, album or song. A list of possible matches will be displayed on the remote
control screen. The Search function is case insensitive, that is, it does not distinguish between upper and
lower case letters.
It may help to understand how the search function operates. Search looks at the beginning of a word
or the whole word to match your entry. For example, entering the word “the” will result in matching all
titles with “the” anywhere in the title, such as “Somewhere over the
Rainbow” or “The Long and Winding
Road”. It will also match any titles containing words which begin with the letters “t...h...e “ such as
“The
re I Go Again”.
You can enter either a letter category, keyword(s) or the exact title as search information. Using
correct names and titles will make your search more effective. Remember, the more complete the search
information you provide, the faster and more effective the search results will be.
Note: Using the Down (▼) arrow will enable you to view the first 99 matches on the remote display.
The remaining titles will not be displayed. Change the parameters of your search to narrow the list.
Tip: Typing errors can be corrected by using the Right and Left arrows to re-position the cursor and
the Backspace button to erase characters. If you press the backspace more than three consecutive times,
all the characters will disappear and the cursor will return to the far side of the screen.
To search for a specific song, album or artist with the I-Mix in the main menu:
• Press the Search button on the remote control keypad.
• Use the Up/Down arrows (▲/▼) to select the category
(song/album/artist) you want to search.
• Press the Right arrow (►) to enter the search menu. The Search
screen will appear ready for you to begin typing. In our example, we
will search for “Love of My Life” by Carlos Santana.
• Type in the keyword(s) to find the title of your choice. Use the Left
/Right arrows (◄/►) and the Backspace button to make changes
and corrections, as needed.
• Press the Return ( ) button to enter the keyword(s). Be patient while
the I-Mix searches for your music. It may take up to one minute to
complete a search. The search results will be displayed on the remote
control screen.
• Use the Up/Down arrows (▲/▼) to select the desired
song/album/artist.
• If searching by song, Press the Right arrow (►) to begin playing. If
searching by artist or album, press the Right arrow (►) to enter the
song list.
• Use the Up/Down arrows (▲/▼) to select the song you want.
• Press the Play/Pause button ( ) or Right arrow (►) to play.
Note: when playing a single song found using the Search mode, the song will stop playing when finished. If you
wish to play the entire album, press the Play button after selecting the album and do not enter the song list.
