Chapter 4: Managing and Playing Music
What is Line-in?
You can connect an external line-in source such as a CD player, portable music
player, or television to your Sonos Multi-Room Music System, and this audio can be
streamed to any ZonePlayer(s) in your house.

Managing Music Folders

The Sonos Multi-Room Music System can play music from any computer or
network-attached storage (NAS) device on your home network where you have
shared music folders (music shares). During the setup process, you are guided
through the process of accessing these shared music folders. Over time, you may
wish to add or remove music folders from this list.
Sonos is designed to work with large music collections. Music folders are indexed so
you can view your music by categories— you can index approximately 65,000
tracks to the Sonos library. If the metadata in your files contains lengthy artist, track,
or album names, your music index may fill up more quickly. For additional
information, you can go to http://faq.sonos.com/musicindex.
• You can add or remove the shared folders Sonos accesses music from at any
time. You may need to make changes if you add a computer to your home net-
work, or if you move shared folders from one location to another.
• If you add new music to a folder that is already indexed, simply update your
music index to add this music to your library.
• To play music from imported playlists, drop the playlist file .PLS, .M3U or
.WPL into the same music folder that you have shared to the Sonos system,
update your music index, and the custom playlists will appear when you select
Imported Playlists from the Music menu.
