SMB Music 2.0.1 (Mobile)

SMB Music is an application for accessing and playing music files on network file servers that support the SMB protocol. SMB (also called CIFS) is the native network file sharing protocol of Microsoft Windows. Mac OS X 10.1 and later and most Linux distributions support it. SMB is also supported on a variety of other systems, including many network file storage appliances.SMB Music can play most MP3, MP4 (M4A) and WAV format music files and M3U format playlists. It will not play DRM protected MP4 files.SMB Music significantly extends the capability of your device by providing access to music libraries that are external to iTunes, especially those that predominantly consist of MP3 music files and M3U playlists. Since SMB Music does not use local device storage, there is essentially no limit to the number of songs that can be accessed and played.Key features:Supports up to 4 network file serversNetwork status detection and auto-recoveryNetbios and DNS name resolutionName resolution bypassInformative status messagesConfigurable file extension filteringAutomatic directory indexingFile tag display including embedded artworkPlaylist support with automatic path mappingSMB Music includes a full set of instructions and basic server setup information.Important notes:SMB Music requires a WiFi connection.
