them based on the meta tag data. If you prefer to create a new folder, for example that is
titled “Imported Music”, in the “Music” folder it will be necessary to map Logitech Media
Server to it. There is an example below of an additional folder being added called “mp3”. This
is in the ”Basic Settings” when launching Squeezebox Server from the server home page.
6. If the album art is not embedded in the files it can be manually placed in the Album folder.
7. Place the file in the folder and title it ”cover”. The file should be a .jpg of 300x300 pixels or
smaller.
8. To remove files from the Music server simply delete them from the “flac” folder.
After manually adding or removing files from the Server, please refer the section titled
“Updating Your Library” to rescan the Music Server contents.
Mirroring files to alternate formats
When ripping DVDs the standard format is MKV but you also have the option to mirror into
mp4 and m2Ts. The auto mirror setting can be configured in the “CD/DVD Ripper” tab of the server
GUI. It may be beneficial to mirror the files into these alternate formats if you have a player that does
not support MKV.
It is also possible to mirror music into mp3 and ALAC formats. These mirror settings can be
configured in the “FLAC Mirror” tab of the server GUI. Once enabled, the server will make a mp3 or
ALAC copy of any file that is ripped to the music server. These files will be stored in a folder separate
from the “flac” folder. It may be beneficial to use this feature in the instance that you want the files
available to be shared with a computer running iTunes which requires ALAC or for use with portable
players that require mp3 format.
