Origami Central is a central location where you can enjoy multimedia
entertainment, browse the web and read the latest news from your web
feeds, as well as access your favorite programs.

Media

Origami Central and Windows Media® Player share the same Library. If your
media files are stored in custom folders, open Windows Media® Player first
and add your media folders to the Library before you use Origami Central to
view or play your media files. For instructions on how to add media folders
to the Library, see Windows Media® Player Help.

You can also download media files from another computer to your HTC Shift
and then view or play them in Origami Central. Before you can download,
connect both computers to a wireless or wired network and then turn
on media sharing in Windows Media® Player on both computers. For
instructions on how to enable media sharing, see Windows Media® Player
Help.
