Harmony looks for movies, still images and Quartz Compositions in a folder called the Harmony Media folder. When Harmony is first run, it creates the Harmony Media folder in your Movies folder, and installs some sample files.
Harmony displays files from the Harmony Media folder in a media browser. You access the media browser from the Media panel. Each item is displayed as a thumbnail. A zoom slider at the bottom allows you to adjust the size of the thumbnails. You can also zoom using a gesture on a Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad.
Pressing space in the media browser, shows the selected item in a QuickLook window.
In addition, the media browser also displays built-in Quartz Compositions provided by Apple.
There are two ways to add files to the Harmony Media folder:
The Media Browser also supports a folder hierarchy in the Harmony Media folder. Each folder in the hierarchy is represented in the browser by a collapsible stack.
Harmony supports up to 10 additional media folders. These folders can be anywhere on your hard drive or on an external hard drive. Harmony takes care of automatically detecting when your external hard drives are available.
