How can I update the media library on remote pc?

I have a configuration of sharing media using Windows Media Player 10 on Windows XP.  I recently added a few new media to my library and it appears on the player, but new media does not appear in the sharing of media to remote computers.  The remote computer is Windows 7 Home Premium running WMP 11.  How can I force my computer to update the library that is shared on my network?  I tried to change information media and restarting the remote computer and the server.  This media appears on the local computer, but the computer that I am sharing is not picking up the new media.

Hi Nathan Mitchell.

On your Windows XP computer to solve the problem, follow these steps:

a. using "My Computer", navigate to the following folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Index

b. remove the "library of wmp... db" file.

Note: This isn't music, only the database.

c. start Windows Media Player.

d. press "F3" and specify the location where you have moved your music to. If it's on multiple disks, check "all readers".
