Protect by

password

You can protect this iTunes server by password, so only iTunes
clients who know this password will be able to share media files.

By selecting “Disable”, everyone in your network will be able to
access your media files, and if too many users are accessing the
media files at the same time, iTunes server may respond slower or
even stop responding. It’s recommended to select “Enable” to protect
your iTunes server by password if you want to prevent non-privileged
people from using your media files.

Password

If password protection is enabled, please specify the password of
iTunes server here.

Confirm

Password

Please confirm the password of iTunes server here.

Rescan interval

Please specify the time interval in second between two iTunes server
scans. The iTunes server periodically scan media folder for newly
added files. The valid rescan interval is from 30 to 65535 seconds.
You can also click “Rescan” button to start a scan immediately. The
required scan time varies depend on the number of media files. It may
take several minutes to finish.

It’s recommended to use default value (300) to prevent iTunes server
from rescanning too frequently. A short rescan interval will make
iTunes server respond slower.

Process m3u

If the folder where media files are located includes any m3u (playlist)
file, iTunes server will read it and generate proper playlist for iTunes
clients.
