3.5.7. Multimedia Server
You may configure your Wireless Space to act as a UPnP multimedia
server.
Follow these steps:
1. If it has been disabled, turn on Media Servers in the Wireless
Space Dashboard (see 3.6.5. Dashboard: General Settings)
(Fig. 54).
2. Now you may play files from your Wireless Space. UPnP/DLNA-
certified players on your network (such as an XBox 360™, Play
Station® 3, a DLNA mobile phone, etc.) can play back media
files located on OpenShare and USB drives connected to the
Wireless Space. See your device’s user manual for information
on how to view media files from a UPnP/DLNA server and sup-
ported file types.
3.5.8. iTunes Music Server
The Wireless Space can act as an iTunes Music server. Users with
iTunes may stream audio files located on OpenShare and USB
drives connected to the Wireless Space. Once configured, a playl-
ist bearing the machine name of your Wireless Space (by default,
WirelessSpace) will appear in the Shared category within iTunes.
Copy audio files to OpenShare or plug a USB drive with music files
into one of the Wireless Space USB expansion ports (1.4. Views of
the Drive). The songs will be listed in the Wireless Space playlist.
Follow these steps:
1. Make sure the Wireless Space is properly connected to your
home network via Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
2. In the General Settings page of the Wireless Space Dashboard,
Media Servers is enabled by default. It must remain enabled to
use the Wireless Space as an iTunes server. (See 3.6.5. Dash-
board: General Settings) (Fig. 54).
3. The Wireless Space automatically scans for music once every 24
hours. To manually update the Wireless Space iTunes library,
select REFRESH (Fig. 55). Please note that very large libraries of
music will take time to add to the Wireless Space playlist.
