Jinzora is a web based media streaming and management system, written in PHP.

"One-click" Jinzora Installer

The One-click installer is configured to have the music library stored in the share called "music."

Jinzora looks for a very specific structure when it looks for media. It expects to find a folder structure like this inside the music folder:

  • Level 1: Genre
  • Level 2: Artist
  • Level 3: Album
  • Level 4: sound tracks

If it does then Jinzora does a great job organizing the collection.

To scan your library into Jinzora:

  1. login as the user "admin"
  2. click the "Admin Tools" icon - in the little window at the top left of the screen
  3. in the pop-up window click "Media Management"
  4. click "Rescan media"
  5. select the options you prefer (All sub-items for me) and click the "Scan Now" button

To change the location where jinzora searches for audio files:

  1. Admin tools> system tools> settings manager> main settings> System> media_dirs

Point the “media_dirs” to the location where your audio files resides and then re-run the “Rescan media” function.
