If your MP3 player software uses a playlist format that is not supported, 
you can publish music in folders that you organize manually. The main 
difference between a folder and a playlist on your DVR is:
• songs in a folder play in alphabetical order.
• songs in a playlist play in the order you specified when you created the 
playlist.
To publish a playlist or folder of music:
1. In TiVo Publisher, click the “Music” tab.
2. In the upper left pane, navigate to the folder containing the playlist or 
folder you want to publish.
3. Click once on the playlist or folder, then click the Publish button.
If you want to hear songs in the 
order they are arranged on an album or 
CD, create a playlist of the songs in that 
order, then publish and play that 
playlist. Or, create and publish a folder, 
making sure each song’s file name 
starts with its track number.
®
You can also publish music by 
dragging and dropping files and folders 
from Windows into the bottom pane of 
the TiVo Publisher window.
®
If a folder contains both music 
and photos, you can publish it under 
the “Music” tab. However, only the 
music in the folder is available to the 
DVR. To publish the photos, you must 
use the “Photos” tab.
®
Click the “Music” tab when 
you want to publish music.
