Discovery Services - Infrant Technologies Readynas User Manual

UPnP AV provides media streaming service to stand-alone networked home media
adapters and networked DVD players that support the UPnP AV protocol or are Digital
Living Network Alliance (DLNA) standard compliant. The ReadyNAS comes with a
reserved media share that is advertised and recognized by the players. Simply copy your
media files to the Videos, Music, and Pictures folders in that share to display them on your
player. If you wish, you can specify a different media path where your files reside.
Home Media Streaming Server provides streaming of videos, music, and pictures to
popular networked DVD players. The streaming players are often utilizing the streaming
client developed by Syabas. Similar to UPnP AV, this service is used to stream videos,
music, and pictures from the reserved media share to these adapters. If you wish to change
the location where the media files are stored, you can specify a different share and folder
path. Note that this path is shared between the UPnP AV and this service.
