iTunes using a shared drive to burn

Can't get itunes to see the shared drive. I see it in the finder but iTunes won't burn a playlist to the shared drive

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

SirSpliff,



CD or DVD Sharing only allows for access to media inserted to the shared drive, but does not allow for the ability to burn data to shared drives.


Sharing discs


If your Mac doesn't have a built-in optical drive and you need to use a CD or DVD, you can connect an external drive like the Apple USB SuperDrive. You can also share discs from the optical drive of another Mac, or from a Windows computer that has DVD or CD Sharing Setup installed. DVD or CD sharing allows you to access documents stored on these discs, and allows you to install some software.

Use the CD or DVD drive from another computer with your Mac
