http://meebox:8090/
and click
Media Server

as it appears the first time you open it.)
From here, you can see the list of media files that have been found by the media server;

Listing found media files
Media files that have been found by the media server are listed when you click

The media server automatically organizes media files into virtual folders named
Audio
,
Photos
, and
Video
. Along with the physical folders monitored by the server, these are
shown in the folder tree on the left side of the window. (Note that the virtual folders do not
correspond to the similarly-named subfolders of the media folder. Even if you delete the
physical subfolders, these virtual folders will remain.)
The
Audio
virtual folder contains virtual subfolders such as
Artists
and
Albums
that
automatically organize your music collection. To expand a folder, click the plus sign to the
left of the folder’s icon.
