Install SqueezeCenter (Optional)

SqueezeCenter is the music server that runs on your computer and connects
your Squeezebox players and controllers to your local music files, as well
as allowing you to use third-party plug-ins (applications that extend the
features and functions of your Squeezebox). If you’re planning to use your
Squeezebox Duet only to listen to Internet radio and online music services, or
if your music is stored in an MP3tunes music locker, you may skip this step.

SqueezeCenter can be downloaded from www.squeezenetwork.com. After
you log into SqueezeNetwork, click on the Download SqueezeCenter button
and follow these steps:

Select the version of SqueezeCenter for your operating system to

1.

begin the download and save the application to a location where
you’ll be able to locate it later.
Once the download is complete, double-click on the installer icon

2.

and follow the on-screen directions.
The first time SqueezeCenter starts, you will be asked for the location

3.

of your music files and playlists, as well as your SqueezeNetwork
account information. SqueezeCenter will start to scan your
music collection; the time needed to complete the scan will vary,
depending on the size of your collection and your computer’s speed.

Note: SqueezeCenter will scan one folder, including all sub-folders,
for your music. If you have music stored in multiple folders, or on
multiple computers, you’ll need to create a shortcut to those other
folders and store them wherever you set SqueezeCenter to scan for
your music.

Note: If your are installing SqueezeCenter on a Linux-based
computer, or wish to install on a variant of Unix using a tarball,
instructions can be found at
