Using the Media Menu

The Media menu allows administrators to set up the SilverStore as a media server, enable
iTunes service on the SilverStore, and configure how files and folders will appear when
accessed by control points and renderers based on UPnP structure. Why, you may wonder,
can UPnP structure based devices access media files in the SilverStore? This is attributed
to WiDMS, an embedded software resolution in SilverStore, providing you with content
directory service that allows you to control the UPnP structure based renderers to play media
files in SilverStore in a wireless manner. The application auto starts once the SilverStore is
powered on. With its configuration mechanism , WiDMS makes it possible for you to manage
its configuration without extra tools.
The Media menu provides access to the following configuration options:
• Media Server Setup
• iTunes Setup

Media Services

Use the Media Services tab to enable the digital media service, sorting method for media
files on the SilverStore, enable compatibility with an Xbox 360 machine, and enable iTunes
