Sharing content with home network devices

You can view or play media content saved to your device on other devices such as a

Sony TVs or speakers. You can also view or play content from other home network
devices on your device.
After you set up media sharing between devices, you can, for example, listen to
music files stored on your home computer from your device, or view photos taken
with your device's camera on a large-screen TV.
