3.9 Adding Content to your 640H from your PC

Now your 640H and PC are set up for network communications, the last

step is to actually get the content of your PC accessible via the 640H.

1. In the main menu of the 640H, select "Settings" in the left hand

menu:

2. In the right hand menu that appears, select "System":

3. Now select "Content":

4. In the "Content Settings" menu (rescan location), select "Add

Location":

5. This now brings up four settings that you can change: Friendly name,

File location, User name and Password.

6. For the Friendly name, you can enter anything you like to denote what

your selection is. For example, if you have chosen to add your whole

collection to the 640H, it could be "My PC Music." If you only add a

particular artist, album etc, then it could be the name of the artist or

album.

7. The File location, as the name suggests, is where you enter the

location of your MP3 music on your computer. The way you enter the

file location is as follows: \\computer name\MP3 share folder name,

i.e. \\lounge\MP3. The computer name and MP3 share folder name

is as described in the "Setting up your PC to share music over a

network" section earlier.

8. It is possible to add many locations to your 640H either from different

network devices or from the same network device (i.e. PC). This also

means you can add different folders to your 640H content from within

your main MP3 folder. To do this, for example, say you have music on

your computer in folders called "Aerosmith" and "Robbie Williams,"

that exist in your MP3 folder, if you want to add these folders

individually, your enter (using the lounge\MP3 example above):

\\lounge\MP3\Aerosmith and \\lounge\MP3\Robbie Williams.

Note: you have to go through the process "Adding Content to your

640H from your PC" as described here for each location you want to

add.

9. The username should be left as default "Guest" and the password

should be left as default blank (no text):

10. Select the "Scan" button and then select "Start." This will then scan

your computer and create a database in the 640H listing the

contents of the PC. Note: The actual music file does not get

transferred. This is done in two stages: "Scanning content" and

"Updating the database". Both can take a long time depending on

the amount of songs you have in your collection. When the process

is completed, you will see the computer contents in your music
