Sharing over LAN
« on: September 28, 2010, 06:23:06 am »

Is there a way for MC 15 to share it's library/files with people using iTunes on our network at work?  Most of the computers are Mac with iTunes, but I'm a PC with MC15 and would like to share my collection.

Any ways?

Thanks!

Not directly, but you can install and use FireFly Media Server and point it at your media files.  It will serve any files it finds via the DAAPD system.  FYI: iTunes 10.0 broke compatibility with FireFly and many other DAAPD servers, but Apple released 10.1 this weekend which fixes that support.

FireFly will auto-rescan the media files on a regular basis so it will find and pick up any tagging changes you implement with MC.
