» Setting up iTunes on the Media Vault and the computer

Multiple computers in your home often means photos, music, videos and files are scattered all over the place and difficult to locate. The HP Media Vault provides a centralized location for all of your media files for easy access from any computer in your home. Additionally, if you have a Digital Media Adapter (DMA) attached to your television or stereo, you can stream media files from the server to your stereo or television.

Music

Consolidate your digital music in one location. It's as simple as dragging and dropping your music files into the Music folder on your HP Media Vault.

If you use iTunes, you can consolidate your iTunes libraries and playlists from multiple computers on your network to the Media Vault.

Once music files are consolidated on the Media Vault, you can avoid unsightly cables and wirelessly stream music to your stereo if your DMA supports wireless media streaming.

Photos

Before owning an HP Media Vault, you probably stored most of your digital photos on your personal computer. This is great but you ideally want to show the photos on your large-screen TV so the entire family can gather around and see.

With the HP Media Vault, you can save your photos to your server once and watch them from any computer or DMA enabled TV in your home without creating copies, transferring files, burning DVDs, or rewiring cables.

Videos

Store digital home movies and downloaded or digitally recorded movies and TV shows on your Media Vault. The large storage space enables you to store lots of shows before running out of storage space. The media streaming capabilities make it possible for you to store movies in one location and watch them on any DMA-enabled device in your home.
