To configure Xbmc to connect to a server on your home network, choose the media type—
Video, Music or Pictures—and click the Add Source option. In the window that appears,
choose Browse to retrieve a list of source types (see Figure 8-5). These source types include
local drives connected to the Raspberry Pi, which are highlighted with a blue icon, as well as
network devices, which are highlighted with a red icon. Choose the type of server you're try-
ing to connect to from the list, and then click on the server that appears.

If the server you select has multiple folders available—such as folders for different genres,
artists, albums or file types—select the folder you want Xbmc to connect to and click the OK
button. This will return you to the Add Source screen (see Figure 8-6) with the required infor-
mation filled in. If additional details are required—such as a user name and password for a
protected server—you'll need to fill these in before clicking OK.
