The Server Button
The purpose of the “Server” button in MusicCast Controller (shown on the right) is to allow you to access music files that you have downloaded or backed up. Those files are usually located in a particular folder on a hard drive — either one inside your computer or an external storage device like a thumb drive. With MusicCast, you can play those files back in any or all rooms in your multi-room home audio system.
Don’t touch that Server button just yet, though! Before MusicCast can see this content, you need to activate a feature on your computer called media file sharing.
Media File Sharing
There are several methods for accessing your music depending on how your network is set up. For instance, if your router has a USB port configured as a NAS (Network Attached Storage) input, you’re ahead of the game. Simply connect a high capacity USB thumb drive or hard drive with all your music stored on it (or as much as you can fit on the drive). Touching the “Server” button in MusicCast Controller will give you access to all the music stored on the drive.
If that feature is not available on your router, you can add a dedicated NAS server to your network. Here’s how to activate media sharing on a PC that’s running Windows 10:
1. First, you’ll need to turn on the sharing function of your PC. From the search bar, type “Control Panel”:Hp Music Laptop
2. From the icon view, navigate to the “Network and Sharing Center”:3. Select “Change advanced sharing settings”:4. Click on “All Networks”:5. Click “Choose media streaming options”:6. Click on the “Turn on media streaming” button, then hit OK:7. Type in a name for your media library, then use the tick boxes to decide which devices will have access to the media stored on your PC’s music folder. Finally, hit OK:8. Finally, close out all windows. MusicCast Controller can now see the music stored in your Music media folder.In an upcoming post, we’ll explore how to set up an iTunes® NAS server and stream the music you own from a Mac®.
