Why can't some media files be autoclassified?
Because these files have not ID3 information. You have to add it first or manually classify them..

Are there any special functions for classes?
In the Class Manage window (right), you can click one and drag it to the other position, so that you can easily change your class arrangements. If you do not want your classes to be changed easily, you can lock them with a password.

What is ID3?
Media file information, including class, file name, file location, lyric location and tags. Once a file is playing, you can easily click the scrolling list in the main window to see its ID3.

How to use the lyrics player?
You need a *.lrc file first, match it to your song, then you can get to the lyric dynamically in the lyrics player. What's more, you can select colors and fonts for your lyric play. Is it wonderful?

How can I get the lyrics?
You can download the *.lrc files from the Internet. We strongly recommend a website: http://www.51lrc.com.

Can I change a *.lrc file so as to make it match better to the song?
