Too many mp3 files... Project too big

[MarcoTR]

Hello,
I am sure it's easy for you but I am just a beginner... I created a project with many mp3 uploaded. I play them with player given in the media list. Is there some way to set the player source with a mp3 stored in the device and not with a mp3 uploaded in the appinventor server? The goal is to have a lighter project because it exceeded the maximum allowed memory. Thanks a lot.
