Using
myView
Media
Manager
on your PC
This chapter shows how to use
myView
Media Manager
to deliver media files (videos, music,
pictures) to your home entertainment system. First, install
myView
Media Manager
software onto
your PC from the
Networking Companion CD
that shipped with the device. Then, you will be
able to do the following:
•
Add a security code to any PC connected to your network. Typically, locking a PC (Parental
Control), prevents young family members from accessing inappropriate material.
•
Link pictures to music (the same pictures are displayed whenever linked music is played), or link
music to pictures (the same music is played whenever linked pictures are viewed).
•
Change the folder names and locations where videos, music, and pictures are stored on your
networked PCs. The default is
C:\My Videos
,
My Music
, and
My Pictures
.

HDMR-2000
on the supplied
Networking Companion CD

unless you disable it.
IMPORTANT:
To enable all your networked PCs to share media files with your

PC as follows.
