Title: Library Server to only share audio and not pics/video?
Post by: Osho on May 24, 2009, 04:53:17 pm

Hi,

I would like a way in Library Server to only share Audio but not Images/Video. Is this possible?

I would prefer to do it without having 2 separate libraries.

Thanks,
Osho

Currently there's no way to apply a filter to what is shared, so you would have to use two libraries.

OK. I could use 2 libraries if I have to. Two questions:

1. Can I run 2 instances of MC13.exe on the same machine? I would like one to run with the audio-only library with library server ON (preferably in the background without a window). And, I would like to run one with the audio+image+video library with the window as usual.

2. Can I set-up a cron job to copy audio-only content of the full library to the audio-only library? So, 2 libraries stay in synch.

thanks,
Osho

1.  Yes.  You need to set the option in MC though.

2. I don't think so.
