Describe setting up and using the FTP content sharing server
(Describe setting up and using the UPNP AV server)
(Describe setting up and using the FTP content sharing server)
Then the content on the USB storage device can be shared. The USB storage device has to be setup to have the
required directory structure - it appears this has to be done on the web interface
- select Toolbox - Content Sharing - Configure and make the disk/partition a 'Managed partition'. Note that performing
this step changes the share names served from the USB storage device (to 'Shared' and 'Media').
 
One can then browse the media server with a suitable client. For example, on Linux one can use ''vlc''
 
Now it just needs some media files added in the the 'Media/Pictures', 'Media/Music' or 'Media/Movies' directories.
 
== FTP server ==
 
Enable with:
:contentsharing ftp config state=enabled
 
FTP to the content sharing IP address, and login with router username/password (the Administrator credentials work OK).
The root directory of the FTP server is the share named 'Shared' - whereas the shared media files for the UPNP AV server
are under a share named 'Media'.
