Home Share Using External Hard Drive

[tennisknight]

Hi all!

My question is what's the fastest way to show all my music on my Apple TV that's on my external hard drive?

Because the only way I know how is by playing each song one at a time from my computer, but with over 25,000 songs, that could take a while.

Thanks,
tennisknight

You just need to add those files to the library, you can do in bulk:

Thanks FreakinEurekan!

I got it now. I just changed the media folder location and now they're all showing up!

Woo-hoo!

Great tip. I am going to do this with my Apple TV as well.

Thanks
