InnuOS Operating System  - DIGITAL MUSIC IMPORT

  • Import Wizards for Existing Libraries
  • Pre-defined wizards for importing music from USB storage, Music Servers and NAS.
  • Intelligent Import Engine
  • innuOS takes all the hard work of importing music by intelligently analysing the music files and applying a number of rules such as:
  • Organising the music based on format quality (compressed, cd quality or high-resolution), Artist and Album
  • Removing very long file names or illegal characters
  • Adding metadata to WAV files based on folder structure 
  • Download from Online Stores

Qobuz, Linn Records, HD Tracks, HiResAudio, B&W Society of Sound, iTunes, Amazon and more. Just download the music files (even if they are in a zip or tar file) to the Auto Import shared folder and the server will take care of adding and updating the music library.

MUSIC LIBRARY MANAGEMENT

Edit or Delete Albums

Browse your library, select the album you want to update and just start editing directly on your tablet or smartphone. You can change the cover, manage genres based on previously used genres or simply delete the album - couldn’t be easier.

Quarantine

Quarantine is a staging area, separate from the Music Library, where any albums requiring attention are placed so they can be fixed before they go into the Music Library. These include:

  • Albums with no metadata
  • Ripped albums with damaged tracks
  • Potentially duplicated albums
  • Albums ripped offline

 

Automatic Music Library Update

After music is added, modified or deleted, the library is automatically updated as well as any connected systems such as Sonos or UPnP Streamers.
