Playing files on a Digital Media Renderer device
Using DLNA™ technology, you can push media content saved on your device to another device connected to the same network. The other device must be able to function as a Digital Media Renderer (DMR) device, which means that it can render, or play, content received from your device. A DMR device can be, for example, a TV with DLNA function, or a PC running Windows® 7 or higher.
The settings for enabling the Digital Media Renderer may vary depending on the device used. Refer to the user guide for the respective device for more detailed information.
Content with Digital Rights Management (DRM) cannot be played on a Digital Media Renderer device using DLNA™ technology.
