1. Open Video or Music > Storage and then select Media servers (UPnP) shown under External (you
may need to scroll down to see this) to start scanning for devices and computers sharing their media
files on the WiFi network.
2. If you entered a name for your shared media files in Windows Media® Player, it should appear.
Open it, and you will then have access to all the videos and music stored in your PC's Windows
Media® Library.

types including Pictures. Choose Pictures to start viewing the pictures stored in the Windows® Media
Library.

9. PLAYING MUSIC (MUSIC APP)

The music player application offers many functions. Not all of them are explained
below. Hold down on an item or tap on the menu icon if you are in doubt about what
options are available to you. When you leave the music playback screen while a song is
still playing, it will keep playing in the background. This allows you to browse your
internal memory, view your photos or surf the Web while listening to music. Regardless
of what you are doing on your device while the music is playing, you will be able to
access the music playback screen by pulling down the top notification bar
