将Windows Media Center连接器设置为Windows Home Server

One of the advantages of Windows Home Server with Power Pack 3 is its integration with Windows Media Center. Here we take a look at installing the Windows Media Center Connector and the features it has to offer.

带有Power Pack 3的Windows Home Server的优点之一是它与Windows Media Center的集成。 在这里，我们看一下如何安装Windows Media Center连接器及其必须提供的功能。

Install Connector

安装连接器

After you’ve installed Windows Home Server (WHS) you’ve probably noticed a message pop up when you start Windows Media Center (WMC). Just click Ok to that message, you don’t need to set it up right away unless you want to. We know we can set it up from the Start menu at any time.

安装Windows Home Server(WHS)后，启动Windows Media Center(WMC)时可能会注意到弹出消息。 只需单击“确定”以显示该消息，除非您愿意，否则无需立即进行设置。 我们知道我们可以随时从“开始”菜单进行设置。

Here we take a look at installing it on Windows 7 Home Premium. Open the Start menu and click on Windows Media Center Connector as shown here.

在这里，我们来看看如何在Windows 7 Home Premium上安装它。 打开“开始”菜单，然后单击Windows Media Center连接器，如下所示。

The setup wizard starts and you can click Next…

安装向导启动，您可以单击下一步…。

Enter in the password to your WHS…

输入您的WHS密码...

That was easy! You’re all set…however a restart of the machine is required.

那很简单！ 一切就绪……但是，需要重新启动计算机。

After returning from the reboot, open WMC and in the main menu you’ll see an entry for Home Server that includes TV Archive and Console View.

从重启重新启动后，打开WMC，然后在主菜单中将看到Home Server的条目，其中包括TV Archive和Console View。

TV Archive

电视档案

The TV Archive feature let’s you move recorded TV to your WHS with ease. You can select individual shows or have all of your recorded programs archived to the server.

电视存档功能使您可以轻松地将录制的电视移至WHS。 您可以选择单个节目，也可以将所有录制的节目存档到服务器。

You can have a compressed copy saved to the server or Public Videos folder as well. You can choose from Original Resolution, 320×240 for Windows Mobile, or 720×480 for the Zune –each in WMV format. The nice benefit to this is you can record your favorite shows and have the original and / or a compressed version stored on the server.

您也可以将压缩副本保存到服务器或“公共视频”文件夹中。 您可以选择原始分辨率，对于Windows Mobile为320×240或对于Zune为720×480 –每个WMV格式。 这样做的好处是您可以录制自己喜欢的节目，并将原始和/或压缩版本存储在服务器上。

Console View

控制台视图

The other neat feature is Console View. It lets you see different statistic about your server right from the comfort of your couch – or computer, whichever the case may be.

另一个简洁的功能是控制台视图。 它使您可以在舒适的沙发上或计算机上(视情况而定)查看有关服务器的不同统计信息。

From the Console View you can see:

在控制台视图中，您可以看到：

• Storage
  存储
• Drives
  驱动器
• Backup
  后备
• Shared Folders
  共享文件夹
• Media Counts
  媒体计数
• Server & Network Health
  服务器和网络健康
• Windows Home Server Hardware Information
  Windows Home Server硬件信息

Now when you go into your Recorded TV folder you’ll see it is pulling the shows from the server. This saves drive space on your local machine, and relieves you of the hassle of manually transferring the files over.

现在，当您进入“录制的电视”文件夹时，您会看到它正在从服务器提取节目。 这样可以节省本地计算机上的驱动器空间，并且省去了手动传输文件的麻烦。

It also works with Media Center in Vista as well…

它也可以在Vista中的Media Center中使用。

The Windows Media Center Connector adds additional functionality for managing your recorded TV files. It keeps them off your local machine’s hard drive saving you the hassle of moving them yourself. Also, having the ability to view basic server statistics from the couch is a definite plus too.

Windows Media Center连接器添加了用于管理录制的电视文件的其他功能。 它使它们脱离本地计算机的硬盘驱动器，从而避免了您自己移动它们的麻烦。 同样，具有从沙发上查看基本服务器统计信息的能力也是必不可少的。
