NOTE: Playing video files over remote access
requires the same plug-ins you have installed on

speeds of both your home connection and
remote connection. Video playback should be
limited to smaller video files, as larger video
files may take a long time to load and play.

Ways to Use the Media Hub
NOTE: The Media Hub plays video content
through a browser plug-in. Download and
install your favorite media player to enable
video playback within the Media Browser.
Please note that media players have varying
levels of support for different video formats.
If the video format you want to play is not
supported, you may want to search the
Internet for a media player that can run on
your computer and support the desired video
formats. (Make sure you download the latest
version.) Some suggested players include
QuickTime, VLC, and Windows Media Player.
