Media Management

Media Management Overview

The px12-400r has a built-in media server that, when turned on, scans for media content in specific
Shares that have media sharing enabled. Any media content contained in these specific Shares are
accessible to any user on your network with a media player, even if the Share is secured. For
information on enabling a folder as a media folder, refer to

Managing Shares

.

Scanning for media content

The Media Server automatically scans for media content on a regular basis. However, you can click

Scan now

at any time to force the media server to perform an immediate scan for media content.

This is especially useful after you have created new folders with media sharing enabled and copied a
large amount of media content to them.

How do I...

share media content over the internet

enable media aggregation

stream music, movies, and pictures

share media through social media
