I know some people use relax.  I don't however.  First create a share on your computer.  Mine is called "mp3s".  Then just open your config.xml and find:

   <music>
     <visible>true</visible>
     <share>
       <name>Network Server</name>
       <url>smb://user:@Coreys_house/Intel/mp3s</url>
       <cachesize>256</cachesize>
     </share>

This is my personal file.
"user" is the user name that logs in the computer.
"Coreys_house" is the domain you are on.  Usually "workgroup" but I change all the PCs in my house to "Corey_House" so I can see easier when other people connect to my network.
"Intel" is the computer name.
"mp3s" is the share name you create.

Use the same format for pictures and videos.

Yes.  And you can add entire folders or just 1 song to your playlist with the "Y" button.  You might want to look into using Relax if the delay is too great though.  Mine has a slight delay depending how many files are in each folder and how many I am adding to the playlist, but I am still fine with it.
