Media Folder
Media folders are shared folders on the NAS that are scanned for multimedia files. "/Multimedia" and
"/Home" are the default media folders on the NAS (from QTS 4.1, all default shared folders on the
NAS are identified as media folders for the purpose of multimedia application services.) To add media
folders: click "Add", select media types and folders from the list, and click "Add". To change scanned
file types for the media folders, first uncheck the media file types and click "Apply". To remove media
folders, first select media folders from the list, and then click "Delete" and "Apply".
Transcode Management
Transcoding is the process of converting video files into an universal format (*.MP4) that is
compatible with most media players, including mobile devices and Smart TVs. Converted files with a
range of resolutions can be used across different network environments for better viewing experience.
After transcoding tasks are created, they can be managed here. This service is enabled by default.
