Add-In: WebGuide for WHS FREE
WebGuide for WHS is out as a free add-in that enables you to remotely access, listen, watch and stream your music, photos and videos stored on your home server while away from home. It Integrates with the Windows Home Server remote web site via the homepage link and a single-signon and enables you to access your photos with thumbnails, with “zoom” and exif-data. You can browse your music library and listen to it via the web and stream your videos/movies at multiple resolutions and bitrates. And if that is not enough you can also have mobile access to your music and videos from Windows Mobile devices as well.

- Added “auto config” to config utility.
- Auto syncs user account names and permissions with WHS console. Need to load/save config app for permissions to be valid.

- Added loading percentage to music page when the WMP library is still loading.
- Auto loads first folder for pictures/videos when there is only one folder setup.
- Added Chinese and Portuguese translations.
- Fixed uninstall of WHS website link and UPnP port forwarding.
- Added WMP library reset/status page from about/”more info” (refresh_wmp.aspx). Used to reset the loaded library and reload from WMP.

Great add-in, however, I miss the ability to change my music stream to use another library than shares/music.
It’s possible with the video and picture library – but not music – why?
But again – a great add-in
Is there a way to download the pictures being viewed. I like you can view them as a slideshow, but it would be great if you can then download the ones you want.
Why is the website down? I can’t seem to download the file
