Hi !
My original intent for using my Raspberry Pi was to stream my music folder from my laptop to my raspberry pi, which is connected to my sound system. I would then control the Pi from my laptop as well.
However, with this set-up, I don't share though a NAS (as far as I know, i.e. not that much). Is it possible at all to use RaspFi for my needs or should I go looking for something else ?
Thanks
ps : I don't want to use an USB external HD because I don't have one and it wouldn't update automatically when I acquire new music.

you can use airplay or share your music folder in your network then add it as a NAS share
I do not use any Apple Product, some my understanding is that I cannot use AirPlay, right ?
How would I add a shared folder as a NAS share (I use Windows 7) ? I lost the best part of my afternoon trying to do just that

Use the ip of your pc to add it to RaspyFi!
I've followed those instructions, but can't get the RaspyFi to regonize the folder.
I am using the WebUI. I think my problem is that I don't know which input I am suppose to write in "Remote Directory". Should I only include the folder's name ? Should I write all the directories from C:/ ? I guess I need to let the username and password fields blank ? And as I am using a PC, do I need to write my slashes like this / (as for Linux) or like this \ (for Windows) ?
