Media Management Overview
The ix2 has a built-in media server that, when turned on, scans for media content in specific Shares that
have media sharing enabled. Any media content contained in these specific Shares are accessible to any
user on your network with a media player, even if the Share is secured. For information on enabling a folder
as a media folder, refer to
Managing Shares
on page 24.
Scanning for media content
The Media Server automatically scans for media content on a regular basis. However, you can click Scan
now at any time to force the media server to perform an immediate scan for media content. This is
especially useful after you have created new folders with media sharing enabled and copied a large amount
of media content to them.
