The web interface
TwonkyMedia's web interface is designed to let you configure the various settings of your TwonkyMusic
UPnP server. To access the web interface, either use the TwonkyMedia Web Configuration entry in the
TwonkyVision program group of the Start menu, or double-click the Twonky icon in the system tray. Either
way, your Internet browser will open and display the web interface. We will not be covering every minute
detail of the web interface at this point, as the comprehensive documentation on the CD does a good job of
that. We would. however, like to show you a few configuration examples and their effects. Off we go…
Web interface – Sharing
When you open the web-based interface, the main
screen ("Sharing") opens with your media server's
current status information. A few explanations…
Content Locations
are the directories on your com-
puter where Twonky will look for the media (such as
music files) that you want to make available to the
NOXON. You can specify more than one directory.
Rescan in minutes
specifies the intervals at which
the server should automatically scan for new music
files.
Rescan content directories
manually launches a
rescan of your media files to include new material,
for example.
Web interface – Clients/Security
Here, you can enter a password to protect the web
interface from unauthorised access.
More important is the
Enable sharing for new
clients automatically
option. Initially, you should
leave this option enabled without any concern. All
of the clients listed here (identified by their IP ad-
dresses) can access this computer and the media
server over the network.
If NOXON does not list the corresponding server,
check that the correct device IP is entered here. If
you do not know the IP address of the NOXON, you
can look it up in the status menu of the device. To
do so, call up the setup menu by pressing
,
select "Device status" and then scroll down the list
using the down arrow until the IP address is dis-
played.
Restart server
is useful if anything ever gets
stuck.
