9. PLAYING YOUR PC’S SHARED MEDIA

You don't have to limit yourself to playing only the video, music, and photo files that are stored on your device. When connected to your home WiFi network, your ARCHOS gives you the possibility to watch, directly on your device, the shared media files (videos, music or photos) stored on your computer. There are two main ways to "stream" media to your ARCHOS via WiFi.
