Playlist/Folder Sharing Permissions

Mezzmo lets you control the security access to playlists and folders in your Mezzmo library. You can permit or deny access to any of your playlists and folder when devices or users connect to your Mezzmo library using your Mezzmo media server.

This can be useful when you wish to limit what folders or playlists that a device in your home can access. For example, you may want to not let the computer or games console in your children's bedroom to access certain folders or playlists that you have in your Mezzmo library.

Playlist/Folder Sharing Permissions dialog

To set the sharing permissions for a playlist, right-click on a playlist or folder in the tree and click the Playlist Sharing Permissions. The Playlist Sharing Permissions dialog will be displayed.

Tip: For parental control over your Mezzmo library, we recommend using Content Ratings to limit what files, playlists and folders are listed and played on a device.
