it might be a stupid question, but were should i "add the NAS share to the EVA"? Trough the sw on my pc i have noe been abel to do so. directly from the EVA i have added the NAS so i can play files from it. The problem is tag'ing the files. that has to be don from the pc, and that vil not map up the NAS

pardizzone said: You can not add it the way your trying to do it. The setup your running through is for when you are going to share files through uPNP to view Protected content (DRM). You want to add the share either through the EVA8000 directly (not in front of my EVA at the moment) under the "Add Network Share" menu which is somewhere under the Supervisor/Advanced menu. After you add the share you need to do a Full scan for media for the files to show up. You can also add it through the web interface by opening a web browser and putting the ip address of the unit in the address bar (http://ip_of_eva). This will open a web interface that you can use to control your EVA and add the share from there under one of the Supervisor menus.

and I will then be abel to see the NAS on my PC an tag files?

It is a seperate program and has nothing to do with the configuration utility. Just start the tag Tool and open the file you want to tag directly from your mapped drive.

but see my picture abow, when I try to use the tag tool to map up the NAS, i just get a message that the NAS is not shareble...:( what does that meen?

pardizzone said: I just tested it..... I started the Tag Tool, clicked on "File/Open" and opened a folder from my network share with my music and selected an mp3 file. It opened without any problems...... In the picture you show above, the top one shows the Tag Tool and it looks like you didn't have you drive mapped yet. The bottom part shows the Configuration Wizard and looks like you created a mapping (Z:) to you NAS. Just open the Z: drive in the Tag Tool.

The strange thing is that my NAS is madded at Z: on my PC. But the tag tool does NOT show Z:! And when i in the configuratin viz try to add is i just recieve message that it's not shareble :(
