Playing Music From A Drive Or Music Server - Primare SC15 User Manual

P L AY I N G M U SI C FROM A DRIVE OR MUSIC S ERV ER
You can play audio files from a USB flash drive, external
USB hard disk, or a network drive. These options are
ideal if you already have a digital library of CDs or music
files.
On a USB flash drive or USB hard disk the files can be
organised into folders, giving you one way of classifying
your music; eg by Artist.
On a NAS drive you have the option of running a media
server program, which will catalogue your music library
and give you the option of organising it in different ways;
eg by Artist, Genre, Album, or Composer. One free
option is MinimServer; see http://minimserver.com/.
