Imported playlists

The Sonos system is compatible with iTunes playlists (including Genius Mixes) as well as M3U, WPL and PLS playlist files
created with third-party software (e.g. iTunes, WinAmp, Windows Media Player, etc.).
The Sonos system does not change music or playlist files created by other applications; these files are always treated as
"read-only."
To view your imported playlists, select Music Library -> Imported Playlists from the Music Menu.
• If they are not visible, they are probably not located in a folder you currently have shared to the Sonos system. Move
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 your music library. See "Up-
dating the music index" on page 16 for additional information.
• When you make changes to your iTunes playlist(s), exit iTunes, and then update your Sonos music index in order to see
the changes (see "Updating the music index" on page 16).
• iTunes playlists will automatically be imported into the Imported Playlists menu on both the Sonos controller and Sonos
Controller for Mac or PC on your PC as long as your 'iTunes Music Library.xml' file is shared along with your music to the
Sonos system. For typical iTunes installations, this file is located in the iTunes folder.
