4.0 Server Software Installation

A small server program, called HomePod Audio Server, must be
installed on each computer that contains audio files that you want to
play through the HomePod. Use the HomePod CD and follow
instructions below to complete the software installation.

4.1 Windows Installation

On the PC, insert the HomePod CD and run the HomePod Audio
Server->Setup.exe.

HomePod CD Content for PC

HomePod Audio Server is based on Java. For Windows PC’s
(98/Me/2000/XP), the installer will alert you to install or upgrade Java
(JRE) if you haven’t already.

Message alerting JRE installation

Click Yes to install Java Runtime Environment (JRE) into your PC. The
process may take a few moments. Let it run to completion without
interrupting the process. If your PC already has Java installed and you
don’t want to upgrade to the latest version, then click No.

When the installation is complete, you will see a new C:\Program
Files\HomePod\Audio Server\ directory as shown below and a new
entry in Start Menu->Programs->HomePod->Audio Server->HomePod
Audio Server.
