- Network Support Coming in New Release

Just a quick update on where we are with the new release. Over the last few months, we have had a lot of users asking for both network support and the ability to change the location of the cache folder when parsing files, as users wanted to use external drives and networks to store files.
In the forthcoming release, we have added the ability to access all the computers on your network. You can now also pick the location where you would like your files to parse. For example, now you can cache your files to another location on your PC, an external hard drive or even another computer that is on your network or homegroup.
This can be extremely useful tool for schools, business and home users with multiple machines as you can use one machine or server to store all your media and then cache it to a dedicated folder. Other users on the network can access your machine through the media browser and load the file(s) immediately with no load times once their machine is directed to the dedicated folder.
With Network Support, you can also mix media on any machine within that network once you have set up the proper permissions within the Windows Environment.
We think it is pretty cool and as users obtain more PCs in the home, school or business, trakAxPC will be able to adjust and give users more flexibility with their media.
(See posts below for other features in the upcoming release – PNG transparent support, AVCHD and .Mov support, Thumbnails, Slide transitions, quicker parsing and more.)
As always, users who purchase trakAxPC today, will receive this upgrade free to charge.
