However, This will result in some items not being displayed in their appropriate category; for e.g.., you may see some music items when you choose the Photo menu, etc. This is NOT a bug and should be taken into consideration when using VAIO Media 4.1 with the PCNA-MR10! To workaround this problem, we advise you to save your media files in folders and register these folders on the server to the VAIO Media console.
