4HD IP address you noted above.

Drag and drop your complete music folder from your PC/
Mac into the Import folder. Once the music is copied over
into the Import folder, the Olive 4HD will import it into the
local library and categorize it. This can take several hours
for large libraries.

Your music will only show up in the local library if the Olive
4HD has successfully imported it from the Import folder.
Once the music is completely imported into the library the
Import folder will be empty.

The Olive 4HD will only import music formats that are supported
(FLAC, WAV, MP3 and AAC). Please be aware that music in
WAV Format does not have metadata and will show up as
“Unknown” artist/album/track on your Olive 4HD.

For large libraries we recommend that you split the library into
several tranches before dragging it into the “Import” folder.

3.3 Importing Music from an USB Drive

The Olive 4HD also allows you to import music from
an external USB hard drive. The hard drive must be
formattedtMPORT MUSIC and follow the on-screen
instructions.

Special HD music content is available on encrypted USB sticks
through Olive’s content partners. Please visit www.olivehifi .com
for details and availability in your region.
