[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1076678, member: 109222"] Hi. Of course you can. All my 18.000 Series episodes, 1.500 movies and 500.000 songs are stored on a NAS. If you have your data on the same machine as the MP2 server running, then there is no need for Network shares or mapped drives at all. All Media is delivered through the MP2 Server. For your situation you need to add Media Sources for your different Media only once. No matter which client you're using to add those shares they are instantly available on all MP2 Clients attached to your MP2 Server. I'm running my MP2 Client in German language but maybe you can find the way in your language also. Here are some screenshots that will guide you: First go to "Settings" then "Media Sources" then "Media Sources Configuration". [ATTACH=full]149144[/ATTACH] Here you click on "Add" [ATTACH=full]149145[/ATTACH] Then you choose "Server Sources" and "local filesystem" [ATTACH=full]149146[/ATTACH] Then click "continue" and there you can see all drives available on your Buffalo (as long as you're running the MP2 server on this also). [ATTACH=full]149147[/ATTACH] Now you can choose the folder to add as a media source, name it the way you like it to appear in MP2 and the last is to choose what kind of media (Audio, Image, Video with Movies and Series) is in the folder you've added. After clicking on "Ready" the import starts immediately. Once the import is finished, you can access the media on all MP2 clients without any further action... [/QUOTE]
