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/.

to play audio files from a nAS (network) drive
Connect the NAS drive to the same network as the I15.
The NAS drive can either contain folders and music files
in any of the popular formats, or it can run a music server.
See
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION, page 16, for details of
the supported file formats.
Use the Prisma app to browse, play, and control the
music.
Alternatively you can select and play music from a Mac
or PC using a music server program such as JRiver or
