3.6. Multimedia Server

Once you have established the network connection between your

computer and the Network Space 2, you can conﬁgure your Net-

work Space to act as a UPnP multimedia server.

Follow these steps:

1. Enable multimedia streaming on the Network Space 2 Dash-

board (see section 4.8. Dashboard: General Settings) (Fig. 37).

2. Now you will be able to play ﬁles located on OpenShare and

USBShare on your Network Space 2 on any other UPnP/DLNA-

certiﬁed player/adapter (such as an XBox 360, Play Station 3, a

DLNA mobile phone, Apple’s Front Row, etc.).

3.7. iTunes Music Server

The Network Space 2 can act as an iTunes Music server, streaming

audio ﬁles located on OpenShare and USBShare to a computer on

the network running iTunes. Once conﬁgured, a playlist bearing the

machine name of your Network Space 2 (by default networkspace2)

will appear in the Shared category within iTunes, and audio ﬁles

stored on the Network Space 2 will be listed in this playlist. Follow

these steps:

1. Make sure the Network Space 2 is properly connected to your

home network as described in section 2. Connecting to a Home

Network.

2. Enable UPnP on the Network Space 2 Dashboard (see section

4.8. Dashboard: General Settings) (Fig. 37).

3. Access the shared playlist in iTunes (Fig. 38).

TECHNICAL NOTE: The iTunes Server Service supports the follow-

ing ﬁle types: .mp3, .wav, and .aac.

TECHNICAL NOTE: You need to enable library sharing in the

iTunes preferences for this to work (Preferences > Sharing > Look

for shared libraries).
