Home Computer Audio Asylum

Music servers and other computer based digital audio technologies.

Yes: EXACTLY the same way

Hi Theo,

Yes, through the cMP screen.
Just like you are used to do.
There is no difference.
cMP only needs too know the pathway too the music files.
You do this in the cMP Settings window.
It doesn’t matter where the music files are stored.

However: since the music files are on a NAS, the network-function has too be enabled and working.
Both when configuring the file path in cMP settings and while playing music.
(but that’s obvious)

Mark.

N.B.
Ow.. and there's nothing brilliant about this.
This is just very basic, novice level, windows networking.
Even I can do it.
You only need too know some network basics.
(That wiz-kid for your UBCD for windows, will surely know them !)

Manually chose:
- an appropriate (!) fixed IP-address
- the correct default gateway (mostly this is your router IP address)

Also don’t use: assign automatically an DNS server)
(All these services are disabled in your cMP setup)
So also specify the IP-address of your preferred DNS server.
This is mostly also your router IP address.
