OPERATION

MEDIA MANAGER

Before using Lola you will need to use Media Manager to scan your computer for music files and import them into Lola. Lola then uses that information to display your music in an easy to use format that can be accessed by remote control from anywhere in your home. Select Run Media Manager from the Lola folder under your Windows Start button. Select Scan Computer for Media from the Tools menu. A screen like the one below appears.

After Media Manager files all your music files, click on Import Files.

Click on the Browse button to find the location that you store your music files (if desired), then click on Start Search. Or scan your entire computer by clicking on Start Search.

Media Manager searches your computer for music files and lists them as they are found.

After you’ve imported all your music files into Lola, exit the Media Manager and run Lola.

Note you can also right-click on the screen while Lola is running and select Run Media Manager.
