HP Media Collector Default Settings

Media Collector is disabled by default. Before Media Collector can begin to copy media to your
HP Data Vault, you must enable the media types you want to collect.

Media Collector copies media files only from computers that are installed as clients on your
Windows Home Server network. For example, if you have a computer that you use only for
gaming and you have not made it part of your Windows Home Server network, this computer is
not available for Media Collection.

For example, you can organize media in these ways:

Photos

• By date taken, or existing file structure

Music

• Default is Artist/Album

Videos

• By existing file structure
