INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO ADD A MUSIC LIBRARY STORED ON A COMPUTER ON THE SOUNDBAR

A music library stored on a smartphone or tablet cannot be added to the app. 

1. Open the SoundTouch app on the same computer that contains the music library
   
   
2. In the app, choose "Add Service" on the left
   

1. Choose "Music Library on Computer" (Note: Only one music library can be added per computer. "This computer" will appear below the name of a library already linked from this computer to the SoundTouch account)
   

1. Select the type of music library to be added by selecting "iTunes" or "Windows Media Player" (Note: Only libraries available on the computer and accessible by the app are selectable)
   
   

1. Enter a name for the library and choose "Add Music Library".
   A black banner stating "Service added" will briefly appear at the top of the screen to indicate the process is complete.
   
   Windows Media Player selected screen is shown below on the left; iTunes screen chosen is shown on the right
   

1. 
   
   The app will find music stored on connected external drives, non-default hard-drive locations, or separate internal hard drives as long as the computer is turned on and the program managing the library (Windows Media Player or iTunes) can find its own files. For music stored on separate drives, .xml and .itl files must be in the default music drive and directory.

The larger the library size, the longer it can take before it is indexed and becomes available via SoundTouch.
