Media location with WMP

[Ken LaCapria]

New to HStouch here. I use a HomeTroller HS3. I have started to tinker with the WMP plugin and need to know where the music files need to live. Can they be on any machine on my network or do the music files need to live in the Hometroller? Can I use an external USB hard drive plugged into the Hometroller to store the music files? What do I need to set up in WMP if anything?

They can be on a USB HDD and I am about 90% sure they can also be on a network share, you can also have multiple folders.

You need to setup these in WMP so load WMP, click Library then Add To Library and you get a list of folders that you can add.

They can be anywhere that the WMPlayer on the HS server can find them, Network shares, other HD's, etc.
