Firefly media, iPad, iTunes and readynas ultra 4

I bet a few of us have iPads and old CDs they have copied onto a readynas. I need help. How don't link that to my iTunes and therefore my iPad.


I have found the interface on my iPad safari to get the firefly screen up by going to 192.168.0.2:3689/config.html but I don't know how to point it to my media section on my readynas ultra 4. I want iTunes on my iPad to refer to my readynas music drive area and connect. Can someone help me complete the entries below I have cut and paste. Thank you so much.




Server Name The name iTunes and other daap clients should see

Music Files
Music Folder Remove
Add music folder
Extensions
Database
Scan Type
Rescan Interval How often should Firefly look for new files? In seconds.

  • I suspect you are expecting the iTunes server to stream to an iDevice, but I am afraid it does not work :(.

    iTunes server can only stream to iTunes (on PC/Mac). See this thread or this thread for a lot more details.
