Browse PC through DLNA

Access and play the pictures, audio and video
files from a computer or media server on the
home network through your SoundStage.
Before you start
• Install a DLNA-compliant media server
application on your device. Make sure that
you download an application that works
best for you. For example,
• Windows Media Player 11 or higher
for PC
• Twonky Media Server for Mac or PC
• Enable media sharing of files. For ease of
use, we have included the steps for the
following applications:
• Windows Media Player 11 (see
'Microsoft Windows Media Player 11'
on page 19)
• Windows Media Player 12 (see
'Microsoft Windows Media Player 12'
on page 20)
• Twonky Media for Mac (see 'Macintosh
OS X Twonky Media (v4.4.2)' on page
20)
Note
•
For additional help on these applications or other
media servers, check the user manual of the media
server software software.
Set up media server software
To enable media sharing, set up the media
server software.
Before you start
• Connect your SoundStage to a home
network. (see 'Connect and set up a home
network' on page 11) For better video
quality, use wired connection whenever
possible.
• Connect the computer and other DLNA-
compatible devices to the same home
network.
• Make sure that your PC firewall allows
you to run Media Player programs (or
the firewall's exemption list has the media
server software included).
• Switch on your computer and the router.
