This is an excerpt from the Help Menu with regards to differences from earlier versions of SS. 1. In SonicStage Version 2.0 or later, the SonicStage music database is called "My Library." In earlier versions this was called "Music Drive." 2. In SonicStage Version 2.0 or later, tracks are placed in and managed by an "album." In earlier versions this was called a "Playlist." Albums act the same as Playlists. For example, when importing tracks from an audio CD, an album is automatically created with the same name as the audio CD. Hint If you updated to SonicStage Version 3.0 or later from an earlier version, all the former Playlists are automatically converted and displayed as albums. 3. You can create a custom playlist according to your preferences. In SonicStage Version 2.x, such a playlist is called a "My Compilation Album," and in SonicStage 3.0 or later is called a "playlist." A playlist is displayed with on the screen (unless an image for the cover art has been registered, in which case the image is shown instead.) 4. SonicStage Version 2.0 or later does not create "Playlist Folders" like earlier versions did. In SonicStage Version 2.0 or later, albums can be arranged in a single list and sorted in various ways; allowing greater flexibility in management. However, you can edit "Playlist Folders" created by an earlier version of SonicStage. Refer to "Editing a Playlist Folder ("Edit My Library Folders" Dialog Box)" for details. Hint Edited Playlist Folders can be shared with other programs, such as VAIO Media, using the SonicStage music database (My Library). 5. SonicStage Version 2.0 or later does not create a "Favorite Playlist" like earlier versions did. This was used to maintain a list your favorite tracks. In the current version of SonicStage, you can create a custom playlist according to your preferences. (Such an album is called a "playlist," and is displayed with on the screen.) 6. In SonicStage Version 2.0 or later, "transfer" is a generic term encompassing both "check-in/out" and "move-in." For clarification (when necessary), the "check-in" operation is further described as "transferring (back) tracks to My Library," and the "move-in" operation is described as "importing tracks into My Library." 7. In SonicStage Version 2.0 or later, the remaining transfer count of a track is indicated in a column in the track list. It is also indicated in the "Track Properties" dialog box (as it was in earlier versions).
