Configuring VAIO Media software

VAIO Media™ software manages the interaction between RoomLink™ and your
VAIO® computer(s), by enabling the computer(s) to act as a music, photo, and
video servers. A VAIO computer that shipped with VAIO Media™ software
preinstalled can be used as a VAIO Media server in a network environment.

VAIO Media software must be running when you access Giga Pocket™ Personal
Video Recorder, SonicStage™, or PictureGear Studio™ software.

Preparing your multimedia content.

Music files—Use SonicStage™ software, ver.1.5, to create Playlists of
music tracks on your VAIO Media server computer. The VAIO Media
Music Server™ software automatically makes these Playlists available
to VAIO Media users on your network.

Still Image files—To make your still image files available to VAIO
Media users on your network, place the still image files (JPEG, GIF,
BMP, or TIFF format) into the folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Photo Server\VAIO Media
For specific information about this folder and location:

1

Click Start on the Windows® taskbar and select All Programs.

2

Point to VAIO Media, point to Server Administration, and then
click Photo Server ReadMe.

3

Read the description on the designated folder.

Video Capsules—Use Giga Pocket software, ver.5.0 or later, to create
cabinets containing Video Capsules on your VAIO Media server
computer. The VAIO Media Video Server™ software automatically
makes these cabinets available to VAIO Media users on your network.

Setting up a VAIO Media server computer

Use the preinstalled VAIO Media Console™ software on your VAIO®
computer to start the appropriate VAIO Media™ servers (VAIO Media Music
Server™, VAIO Media Photo Server™, or VAIO Media Video Server™).
