7.1 Network Music Player

Olive offers its own network music player to allow stream-
ing of music from the Olive 4HD to additional rooms.
Therefore, 3rd party network player s are not actively
supported.

7.2 Streaming from a PC/MAC/NAS to Olive 4HD

The Olive 4HD in corporates local storage to allow q uick
and reliable access to your music content. The refore we
recommend consolidating your music onto the Olive 4HD
hard drive, where it is safe from usual computer problems
(malware/viruses etc.). Olive provides limited suppor t to
streaming from external sources, currently foc using on
Tversity (PC) and Twonky Media (Mac).

7.3 Your Music in iTunes & Windows Media Player

Music stored on your Olive 4HD can be accessed in most
UPnP DLNA compatible soft ware such as iTunes and
Windows Media Player. The Olive 4HD librar y will appear
as a separate music source in these soft ware packages.
i Some software packages (e.g. iTunes) do not support the
FLAC format and this music will therefore not be accessible.
