    A Little WHS help please :)

    Hey guys,

    As some of you know Im in the middle of migrating my data to WHS to stream to my HTPC etc etc. Its all going well and running fine. But I'm having a little problems getting media center on the HTPC to see my music on the WHS, ive set the library to look there but it just isnt having any of it. Anyone come across this/have any suggestions?

    Second thing is that ive got just an SSD in my HTPC now and in terms of recording TV is there any way of allowing it to record direct to the WHS, its playing back recorded TV that ive transfered no problems but what do I need to do to get it to save it directly there?

    Help much appreciated,

    Thanks in advance.

    Do the usernames and passwords for the WHS box and the HTPC correlate?

    As for recorded TV, how do you have it setup at the moment? Have you gone to settings and added a Recorded TV folder on the WHS?

    Yup the password match, and media browser is connecting just fine, pictures is just fine, just the music isnt playing.

    Recorded TV is set up, it was there on the WHS when I booted it, and when I installed the connector and moved the files across the HTPC saw the files off the bat, but im just concerned its going to save any new episodes to the SSD as it forced me to have a folder on the SSD for TV buffering. Im just concerned it will use that preferentially.

    Thanks
