Enjoying the Home Media Gallery

With Home Media Gallery, you can enjoy digital content such as movies, music and photo files. Playable content is files stored on one or more media servers connected by a home network (LAN) or those stored on a USB flash drive. After connecting via a broadband router or an Ethernet hub to a media server with network software*, you can navigate through the digital content on the Home Media Gallery. For USB interface, the plasma display supports Mass Storage Class devices.

*Referred to as a “media server” that contains digital content such as movies, music and photo files. PCs that have pre-installed media server software and recorders with a media server function are considered the media server. There are some media servers that you can choose from; for example, Windows Media Connect, Windows Media Player that has a media sharing function, and DLNA compliant servers.
