Grateful for any advice. Thanks.

When you right-click the red minim icon, are you able to select the Properties option? If yes, then you can add your music library to the Content Dir property.

But is this what you actually want to do, i.e. start MinimServer on the PC? I presume you have MinimServer installed and running on the Melco.

Interesting. When I do look at properties it appears that Content Directory is populated with the previous folder I used prior to getting the Melco ~13 months ago. Also, some of my changes to other properties appear to not ne those I have added over the past few weeks/months? I did a backup of the music on the Melco, both via a USB drive and from my PC (internal folder) to a second drive. I wonder if somehow it has reverted the backup to an "older" version of minimserver I ran??
Any thoughts? Thanks.

Sorry, in answer to your second point, yes, I do have Minimserver installed and running on the Melco. I was trying to open on the PC to rescan the music folder and update my control point as I had just downloaded an album.
