MediaFinder window menus

When the MediaFinder window is open, many functions of the Changer can be accessed through the pull-down menus:

File menu

New Favorites File

The New Favorites File option allows you to create a custom directory on your local system that contains selected media from any Changers connected to the network. You can then select any of the media you want from your Favorites folder, without having to locate the actual Changer folder that the disc resides in.

To create a Favorites folder:

1Select New Favorites File from the File menu. This will create a new Favorites file, and will open the window for that file.

2Drag the desired discs from any open MediaFinder window into the newly created Favorites window. Only named and “visible” volumes can be placed into a Favorites folder. (See Disc Visible settings under the Browser menu item descriptions later in this guide.)

3If you wish, you can select and rename any of the volumes that are placed in a Favorites folder.

4Name the Favorites folder by selecting Save As from the File menu.

5The Favorites folder will now keep track of which Changer contains the discs that have been placed in the Favorites folder. You can access any of the discs by selecting them from your Favorites folder, without having to locate and select the Changer directory that the disc physically resides in. This allows you to develop a custom directory of media that is accessible on your local system.

To remove a disc from your Favorites folder, highlight the disc and select Clear from the Edit menu. Below are other functions available under the File menu.
