I am unable to play music, videos and/or view pictures through my digital media adapter.

The media adapter requires the presence of the /Public/Shared Music /Public/
Shared Pictures and /Public/Shared Videos share folder. Do not rename or delete
the shared folders if you want to use the media adapter. You must recreate or rename
the share if it has been deleted or named something else.

Because there are many kinds of file formats for pictures, videos and music, your
particular digital media adapter may not support a format to play or display it.
