Network Neighbourhood (Share Information with PC)
The Network Neighbourhood feature allows you to access media files that you have
stored on your PC on the SRT 6500 such as video files, mp3 files and photos.
Regardless of the operating system on your PC the first step required is to create a
folder on the local hard drive. We recommend the folder be named Media. The files
that you wish to access via your receiver need to be placed into this folder. If the files
are not in this folder the receiver will not be able to access them.
Once you have created the Media folder please follow the below steps to allow the
files with this folder to be shared over your network.
The Network Neighbourhood feature is compatible with Windows XP and Windows 7.
Instructions for both systems are outlined below.
Please Note: The SRT 6500 supports most multimedia files, we cannot guarantee that
all file types and codecs will be supported.
How to access PC media on Windows XP
