If you have the My Media channel installed on the Roku then you need to browse to your Server install location i.e ....C:\roku server\. Find the config file and point the Paths to where you have your media. The Config.ini file is located in the SERVER directory of where your My Media is located.
Here are examples of the config.ini for the older version of My Media as well as the new config.ini for the latest release of my media (as you can see their not much different, the new version of My Media allows you to edit the config via the Roku but I just prefer to edit the .ini files directly)
OLD config.ini
[config]
music_dir = where your music is i.e. C:\music
video_dir = where your movies are i.e. C:\movies
server_ip = 192.168.1.100
roku_ip = 192.168.1.103
max_folders_before_split = 10
python_path = c:\python26\python.exe
theme = default
collapse_collections = False
server_port = 8001
photo_dir = C:\Photos
NEW config.ini
[config]
music_dir = where your music is i.e. C:\music
video_dir = where your movies are i.e. C:\movies
server_ip = 192.168.1.100
roku_ip = ROKU IP ADDRESS
max_folders_before_split = 10
python_path = c:\python26\python.exe
theme = default
collapse_collections = False
server_port = 8001
photo_dir = C:\Photos
regid = ******
To ensure the server is started find the launch_server.vbs or the mymedia.bat run either one. If the server is running it will show in your Processes Tab in the Task Manger as Python.exe process
