Relinking My Music to C4


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Last summer, I had my dealer add my NAS to my C4 system. Recently I decided to rebuild my NAS, and recreated the user that was linked to my C4 system for music syncing. But, I may have miswritten the username/password as the C4 is no longer seeing the music library. I kept, obviously, the same IP address for the NAS.

I've been looking in Controller HE to see where is configured the NAS IP and credentials, but cannot find it anywhere. Is it because I'm not looking at the right place or it is dealer exclusive?

Thank you

By no means an expert, but with my QNAP setup, I don't need to enter my credentials into C4.  I use Twonky as my media server and enter my NAS credentials there.  

From what I can understand, you’re using a DLNA server to stream music to your C4 controller. Not bad either, but did you programmed it on the C4 side???

I have a synology and they probably have similar things available.

Not much programing required on C4 side.  Had dealer install My Music (DLNA).  Installed Twonky Media server on my NAS, which is where my personal music library resides.  Using Composer HE, I went into My Music (DLNA) properties and selected my server from the drop down menu and my music appeared on my controller.  Using DLNA eliminates the need to for C4 to scan your music folders for new updates as the media server on your NAS will do that on it's own.  Very happy with it.
