MEDIA TRANSFER
In addition to recording directly from the CD tray, it is
also possible to transfer music and cover art images to
and from your Audio Server, using a computer on your
home network. This feature allows you to transfer music
les from your Audio Server to a portable device (for
example, an Apple® iPod®) to allow you to listen to
your music collection while you are away from home.

Provided that your Audio Server is connected correctly it

Address bar (e.g. \\<IP ADDRESS>). When you attempt to
access your Audio Server on your home network, you will
be asked to enter a username and password. These are

to Server.
Click on the Browse button in the Connect to Server
window.
Navigate to your Audio Server on the network and
double-click the appropriate icon.
If your Audio Server does not appear in the browse
window return to the Connect to Server window
and enter: smb://<WORKGROUP><AUDIOSERVER_
NAME> (e.g. smb://MSHOME;AUDIOSERVER) into
the Server Address box, then click the Connect
button.
Note: Both the Workgroup and Audio Server Name
should be in uppercase.
In the SMB Mount window click the OK button.
In the SMB/CIFS Filesystem Authentication window

A window showing the contents of the Audio Server
hard disk will be displayed.
