How can I create a share in the HEOS app to access music from my network source?

App

With the release of the latest HEOS App, you will now see a new option in the HEOS App called “Network Shares”.

Denon heos app for windows

Network Shares will allow the user to access music files (including iTunes music) from a PC, Apple Mac or NAS making the music files accessible from the HEOS App.
To make this feature work, you will need to setup your HEOS device using the HEOS App and also setup your computer to allow access to the music on your PC. (Windows or Mac).
Computer / NAS Setup

  • You can share a whole drive if you want but typically you will not want to. You will want to share the top level folder that includes all your music but nothing more. For iTunes that will be something like user/music/itunes/itunes media/music
  • HEOS can index up to about 40.000 tracks and folders (underneath that folder 'music' you shared)
  • You will need to change the folder sharing settings to allow the users access to the music files on your computer from the HEOS App.
    How do I configure shares in Windows to be used with HEOS?
    How do I configure shares in Mac OSX to be used with HEOS?
  • For NAS you need to follow the instructions by the NAS manufacturer to share - that might be automatic in some cases and you'll just need to know what the drive is called on the network and log into it

HEOS Device setup

  • You need to add the share to one of the HEOS devices on your network, where it (The share) will be configured.
  • To configure the share, you will need to know the name of the folder you want to share, the path to the folder’s location, your PC user name and password. With the exception of your PC’s password, all this information could be easily retrieved from your computer.
    How do I configure the access to my shares in the HEOS app?
  • After configuration, the folder in your PC and its content become available on the HEOS App in Music > Music Servers.
  • You can add 300 songs max to the queue even though HEOS can browse tens of thousands of tracks.
