Copying your music to the Zen

You can copy any existing music in compatible digital formats from your computer to the Zen via the
network.
Note: If you are planning to copy a large amount of music (more than 10Gb), it's advisable that you
connect both your computer and the Zen directly to your Internet router as this will make the copy
operation much faster. If this is not feasible and a wireless connection must be used, we advise to
copy only a few albums (less than 10) at time.
Once your music has been copied, make sure to rescan the Zen's Music Library. You can find the
instructions to rescan the music library for your music system in the "Connecting the Zen to your
music system" section.

Copying High-Resolution or Lossless music in FLAC or Apple Lossless

Downloaded high-resolution or lossless music should be copied to the Files > Music > Flac folder,
regardless if its' format.
If your music is already within an Album Artist\Album folder structure then simply copy the base
Album Artist folder to the Files\Music\Flac folder. If not, we recommend creating the Album
Artist\Album folder structure first and then copying the files to keep the consistency.
Warning: The Album Artist / Album folders and filenames do not influence the data shown on the
remote control apps like Squeezepad or Sonos. Changing the folder names or track names will not
make a change on what is shown on the apps. This is because the information used to index your
music library is contained as tags inside the files themselves and are independent from the folder
and file names. See section "Editing Unknown or Incorrect Album Data" for more information.

Copying High-Resolution or Lossless music in Wav

Wav files do not contain any metadata and, as such, require a specific structure so that they are
properly identified for the music library. The Wav files must follow these rules:
1. The Wav files should be created inside an Artist/Album folder structure. If you have the
Album "Making Movies" by Dire Straits, you should create a folder called Dire Straits on the
Files\Music\Flac folder. Once inside Dire Straits, create a folder named "Making Movies".
2. The Wav files should start with the track number followed by the track title. Ex: 03 Romeo
and Juliet.wav
