Hi<br>
<br>
The below referenced article states:<br>
<br>
If you already have an existing music collection then you can have MythMusic<br>
scan for this. Point MythMusic at the directory in which your music<br>
collection is, by changing the location of your music library:<br>
<br>
Utilities/Setup → Setup →Media Settings-> Music Settings → General<br>
settings.<br>
Then:<br>
<br>
Utilities/Setup → Music tools → Scan for New Music.<br>
<br>
How do you point to a music stored on another PC on your internal LAN?<br>
What is the syntax?<br>
<br>
The below instructions tells you what you can do but it does not tell you<br>
how to do it or provide any examples.<br>

<br></div></blockquote></div><br>There is no special syntax. You need to mount the remote directory on to your local file system using NFS or SAMBA depending on if the remote machine is running linux or Windows. This really has nothing to do with MythTV but is more of a general linux task that needs to be done if you want to access a directory on a remote machine. <br>
<br>At some point we will convert MythMusic to use storage groups like are used for recordings or by MythVideo to access video files which wont require you to mount your remote directories but at the moment that is what you have to do.<br>
