The media server feature lets anyone on your network play video, music, and photos from the USB
storage device connected to your XMG (without having to copy them to another computer). The XMG
can function as a DLNA-compliant media server. The XMG streams files to DLNA-compliant media
clients (like Windows Media Player). The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a group of personal
computer and electronics companies that works to make products compatible in a home network.
The XMG media server enables you to:
• Publish all shares for everyone to play media files in the USB storage device connected to the XMG.
• Use hardware-based media clients like the DMA-2500 to play the files.
Note: Anyone on your network can play the media files in the published shares. No user name
and password or other form of security is used. The media server is enabled by default
with the video, photo, and music shares published.
To change your XMG's media server settings, click
screen appears as shown.
