6.Enter a name for the shared file to ease identification in the browser.

NOTE: The local name for the shared folder (in this example, MediaShare) is optional. If the user does not define a name, it defaults to the server folder name.

7.Click Reconnect at power up: if you want the connection to persist.

8.Click Save.

The SMD 101 connects to the shared folder and places it under the default Shares folder of the files browser (see figure 48).

Figure 48. Browser Shares Folder

To play a file shared on the network share, from the browser files tab, drag and drop the selected file in the Shares folder in the player panel (see Player Controls on page 16).

NOTE: Reliable playback of content from network shares depends on server and network performance. If playback issues are apparent, verify that the server and network performance are sufficient for the content bitrate, or try a lower bitrate clip.
