You can stream music/photos between
computers and MCi8080, when
• MCi8080 is connected to home Wi-Fi/
wired network;
• Music sharing is set up on the computers,
other UPnP servers that are also
connected to the home Wi-Fi/wired
network.
With the music sharing software (the supplied
Media Browser and TwonkyMedia Server),
such computers can work as UPnP media
servers (music/photo libraries) of MCi8080, if
they are turned on.
Through the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)
protocols, a UPnP media server allows music
or picture files to be streamed from the server
to a UPnP client device (e.g. MCi8080). On the
UPnP client device, you can play the music and
pictures from the server.
