Use the Digital 5's Streaming Media Server software that provides the tools for managing your digital media.
Digital media is organized into the Media Library, which is loaded with your existing media when media
files are imported from your media file applications or your hard drive. The Streaming Media Server
software also provides the interface between your PC and the Digital Media Player. The Streaming Media
Server software must be running in order for the Digital Media Player to communicate with your PC, and
bring the media capabilities of your PC to the comfortable confines of your living room. Now, all of the
media stored in your PC can be accessed right from your entertainment center. Streaming Media is not
limited to audio, but also streams video and brings all of your digital images right to your TV screen. You
can opt for the convenience of current wireless networking standards or the security and reliability of good
old-fashioned wires.
The Streaming Media is a client-server system but not in the traditional sense. It is comprised of a client and
a server device. Media stored in the server is played from the client. The Digital Media Player has no
permanent storage thus it is called the "client" because its purpose is to browse and playback content. The
PC has permanent storage and thus it is called the "server". Image, movie, and music files can all be "saved"
to the Digital Media Player from the PC. The communication between these devices is accomplished across
a network, which can either be wired (using the 802.3 Ethernet standard) or wireless using the 802.11b or the
802.11g standard and shall support Atheros 108Mbps throughput with mini-PCI interface).

should also serve your Digital Media Player well. Arrange the components securely on a firm, level surface,
then follow the instructions as user's guide or relative documents.
