Setting Up For The First Time - HP x280n - MediaSmart Connect - Digital Multimedia Receiver Installation And User Manual

Access online media
Both the MediaSmart and the Extender for Windows Media
Center modes enable you to access online content directly from
your TV. Using the MediaSmart mode, you access Internet-based
services through the Online Media menu. HP Online Media
Services allow you to link all your services through a single login.
In addition, accessing certain services such as Snapfish does not
require you to have your PC on.
The Extender for Windows Media Center mode offers a rich
online experience as well. With it you can access a variety of
Internet content, including news feeds, sports clips, concerts, TV,
movie, and Internet radio services.
Controlling live TV
The Extender for Windows Media Center mode allows you to
control live TV if your computer has a TV tuner, and it is connected
to a TV signal source. For more information, see "Controlling live
TV" on page 82.
