8 SERVER-PLAYER MODE: COMMISSIONING THE AUDIO
MODULE WITH AN INTERNAL SERVER
In this case the COMELIT AUDIO PLAYER functions simultaneously as SERVER and CLIENT (only
for 20004501 and 20004502). In other words, the internal client accesses the internal server so that
the device can also be used in “stand-alone” mode. In this mode, however, there are restrictions. It is
only possible to connect storage media with a total capacity of up to 32 GB, i.e. one USB stick with
32 GB or two USB sticks of 16 GB each can be connected.
ART.20004501 and 20004502 can be used like a PLAYER and SERVER simultaneously
only if you have 1 audio zone. If you have 2 or more audio zone you have to use the
art.20004500 like a server.
8.1 CONNECTING THE USB STICK
One or two USB sticks can be directly connected to the COMELIT AUDIO PLAYER.
This offers even greater flexibility. Before you insert the USB stick, however, you must follow a couple
of instructions:
•
The USB stick must be formatted as NTFS (Windows), MacOS, Linux etc2 or Linux etc3.
•
Under no circumstances may the USB interface be extended with a USB hub.
•
We recommend that you do not use more than two USB sticks with a capacity of 16 GB each.
•
As soon as a USB stick is connected, the Logitech Media Server requires several minutes to
scan it. The duration of the scanning process depends not only on whether you have
connected one or two USB sticks, but also on the storage capacity of the individual USB stick,
what format the audio files have (wave or mp3) and how many playlists are stored on the
stick. A cover has a crucial influence on this duration. If each audio file in each folder has its
own cover, this will prolong the scanning process significantly. If there are two USB sticks with
a capacity of 16 GB each, the scanning process will take 20 minutes on average.
•
As soon as a USB stick has been removed the audio files can no longer be played and must
be rescanned the next time the stick is connected.
To ascertain how far the scanning process has progressed, click on “Settings” in the LMS).
Now click on the last tab, “Information”.
Steps that have to be performed before the scanning process is completed (circled in green):
•
Files/Folders
•
New music files
•
New files
•
Playlists
•
Album covers
Please do not play any music files during
the scanning process, as this could
overload the CPU and cause the scan
to start again from the beginning.
Once the LMS has scanned all the audio
files they can be played back.
