 As the face detection function can affect system performance, avoid using it during
peak NAS usage periods.
Media Library and Privacy Settings
Photo and video files in Photo Station are listed and displayed according to shared folder privileges
and media folders settings in the Media Library. For shared folder privileges, only users with an
appropriate permission to a shared folder can view its contents in the Photo Station. For example, if a
user does not have read/write, or read-only permissions to a certain shared folder, that user cannot
see the photos and videos in the shared folder.
Note:
 For x86-based NAS models, all shared folders except "/recording" and "/web" are
media folders by default. For ARM-based NAS models, only "/multimedia" and "/homes"
are media folders by default. However, users can always add more media folders.
 In addition to shared folder privileges, you can also store private videos in your
"/home" shared folder to hide them from other NAS users (except the administrator.)
The contents of the "/home" folder can be found under "Private Collection". Anyone
attempting to access this folder in Photo Station will be prompted for a password.
 To create a shared folder, go to "Control Panel" > "Privilege Settings" > "Shared
Folders".
Photos and videos stored in the shared folders are only visible after they are detected and scanned by
the Media Library. To set the Media Library to scan for photos and videos manually or by schedule go
to "Control Panel" > "Multimedia Management" > "Media Library". For more details on media folder
settings, please refer to the chapter on Multimedia Management.
Note: As the media folders in the Media Library are shared by Photo Station, Music
Station, Video Station and DLNA Media Server as their content source, content will be
affected in those applications if new media folders are added or existing media folders are
removed from the Media Library.
