Connecting Multiple Changers
The Sony ® VGP-XL1B Changers/Recorders are IEEE 1394
(FireWire) devices and can be connected together in a network or
daisy-chain configuration to the host computer to increase storage
capacity for your media library.
Multiple Changer Limitations
• When daisy-chaining/connecting additional changers, only
Sony
® VGP-XL1B Changer/Recorders are supported.
• All other media (Audio CDs, data CDs/DVDs, blank CDs/DVDs
can only be accessed in Media Center from the Changer with
the
lowest serial number .
DVD-Video discs in all Changers can be viewed and accessed
from
TV+Movies > DVD Library located on the Media Center
Start menu.
Due to these limitations, it is recommended that you place DVD-
Video discs in the changer(s) with the higher serial numbers and
all other media disc types in the changer with the lowest serial
number, if possible.
Note : Sony supports up to five VGP-XL1B Changer/Recorders.
Functionality is limited when multiple Changers are daisy chained
(connected) to the host computer. (See below.)
Important Note : The Sony ® VGP-XL1B Changer/Recorder with
the lowest serial number should be connected directly to the host
computer. Then connect (daisy-chain) other Changers to it.
