Sharing A Movie Drive - 7th Sense Delta Media Server User Manual

Media SSD Storage

Sharing a Movie Drive

Sharing must be allowed if you require remote access to the movie drive from another PC on the network.
After creating or recreating a RAID you will not have a shortcut in C:\7thSense Data to Movies_E (or in C:
\7thSense Data\Additional Folders, any folders to additional movie drives – e.g. Movies_F, Movies_G).
Batch File Method
More recent builds of Delta Media Servers have a convenient batch file that will share all required drives. If so,
then you will find a folder C:\7thSense\Software & Drivers\Delta\Utilities\7thSense Data. In here you will
have a batch file: * - 7thSenseData_v#.bat.
In Windows Start menu, type cmd, right-click 'Command Prompt' and select 'run as administrator'.
·
In the command prompt, go to C:\7thSense\Software & Drivers\Delta\Utilities\7thSense Data
·
Copy or type the batch file name and press return.
·
This will take a few minutes, and the command prompt window will close once complete. All required movie
drives will now be shared.
