You may not be able to retrieve metadata from some files. And, since
WAV files do not contain metadata, their file information will not be
displayed on the server. If necessary, edit the metadata on the server
(page 87).

The software supports WAV, MP3, AAC, WMA and ATRAC
formats. To transfer these files, the software converts them to the
