7.4 Adding a Music Store
The following paragraphs and illustrations describe the
process of adding a Network Share, promoting it to Music
Store status and then nominating it as the primary Music
Store where ripped data is stored.
To begin, ensure that the new storage device (or shared
folder on an existing network device) is connected to the
network, switched on and configured to be shared. It may
also be useful to give the device an appropriate name.
In the illustrations following, the Network Share is called
Network Music.
It is important that the Network Share to be converted to a
Music Store contains no existing files.
Note: Naming the Network Share must be done via the
connected computer operating system. Network Shares
are only enabled automatically if their name contains the
words “music”, “MP3” or “Content”.
The HDX will automatically find appropriately configured
network shares and list them in the
Manage Network
Shares screen found via Home Menu > System Setup >
Network Shares . If the new share does not appear select
Refresh .
Audio files stored on Network Music will now be available
for browse and playback via the HDX. Select
Home Menu
> Browse > Music Locations > All Music or Network Music .
To convert the Network Share to Music Store status take
the following steps:
Note: Only enabled Network Shares can be converted to
become Music Stores.
Step 1: Select Music Stores from the System Setup menu
and then Add New Store . Selecting Next at the subsequent
information screen opens a list menu showing all the
available Network Shares able to be converted to Music
Store status.
