Once WMC has been enabled to share a shared folder, it
continually monitors the folder for new files.
1. Open the Control Center on one of your home PCs.
2. Select the Tools tab at the bottom.
3. On the Tools tab, click on the Home Server Console (HSC) icon.
4. On the HSC password screen, type in the Administrator's password .
5. When the HSC comes up, click on the Settings button near the top right.
6. In the left pane of the Settings panel, select Media Sharing .
7. In the right pane of the Settings panel, you must now select at least one of the shared folders for
sharing by selecting the On radio button.
8. Click Apply .
This will automatically start WMC, which will then share all of the files in the selected shared
folders.
If your DMA does not display WMC from the HP MediaSmart
Server, or none of your files are found by the DMA.
1. Check that WMC is enabled (use the above steps to get to the Media Sharing settings, and verify
that at least one of the shared folders is On).
Check that the HP MediaSmart Server and DMA are both connected to the same home network (a
router or firewall between them could interfere with the discovery and content sharing protocols).

sharing; then all folders below that are also enabled for media sharing.
