PC Server for MX-5000
Powered by
Converts any PC with iTunes or Windows Media
Player into a Powerful Music Server with an Intui-
tive, Friendly User Interface
Instead of purchasing an expensive "Media PC" or dedicated mu-
sic server, any PC with iTunes and/or Windows Media Player can
be connected to your audio system to act as a high powered mu-
sic server with the most engaging, intuitive user interface you've
ever seen.
Up to now, the complexity of having to deal with a keyboard and
a mouse in your listening room has made this an uncomfortable
choice.
You know the frustrating feeling—some of your music was down-
loaded via iTunes and some of your music via Windows Media
Player, you've had to keep separate libraries. Finding the music
you paid for was difficult.
MX-5000 Server is a software application that, once installed on
a PC, combines your iTunes library with your Media Player library.
The MX-5000 utilizes its network connection via WiFi to communi-
cate with the server software on the PC. Since all communication
happens at WiFi "G" speeds, there are no lags or delays displaying
the information or lists on the screen of the MX-5000.
All your cover art, artist, album and song title metadata appear on
the screen of the MX-5000. Lists are navigated via the integrated
Up and Down buttons on the remote without ever connecting a
keyboard or mouse to the PC.
You build a "queue" of whatever music in on your PC and shuffle
or sequentially play it, just as you like. At last, you have access to
all the music you've paid for... all the music you want without the
hassles... the music simply plays...
The MX-5000 can control all the PCs connected
to your system as long as each is accessible via
your home local area network.
