SHARED MEDIA
Shared media server (audio streaming)
This function allows you to make a selection by artist and track, as well as by album, genre, etc.; this selection depends on the structure of the music archive and on the UPnP server soft- ware in use (e.g. Nero Media Home, Windows Media Player 12). Access times may be pro- longed depending on the size of the music ar- chive, and this make usage inconvenient. While the UPnP server is importing the complete music archive, only limited operation of the device is possible, if at all.
You can select a track based on the ID3 tag in- formation (track, artists, album, genre etc.). This information is displayed during playback.
It is recommended that you maintain this ID3 tag information.
Your device must be authorised on the UPnP server of the computer or hard drive. The UPnP server must be enabled in any firewalls that may be installed. Several UPnP servers can be used in parallel.
