How VAIO Media Works

This guide provides only an overview of the VAIO Media system. For detailed instructions about setting up and using

VAIO Media, refer to the online Help for VAIO Media.

To share music, video, and photos with the VAIO Media system, set up one computer on your network as the central library
or "media server," and install the VAIO Media client software on other computers. Computers on the network with the VAIO
Media client software can then view the multimedia content stored on the VAIO Media server computer.

Your VAIO Media server computer can store three types of media:

Music files

VAIO Media supports music files in MP3, WAV, OpenMG (ATRAC3 ), and WMA formats. On your VAIO Media server
computer, use SonicStage 1.5 software to create playlists of music to share on your network.

Video files

VAIO Media supports Video Capsule files created by Giga Pocket 5.0 software or later. Video Capsules in MPEG1
(LP), MPEG2 (SP), and MPEG2 (HQ) formats are supported. Only VAIO computers with Giga Pocket 5.0 software or
later installed can be VAIO Media servers for video.

Image files

VAIO Media supports image files in JPEG, GIF, BMP, and TIFF formats.
