How to stream media to your entertainment center

Steaming media

If you have a Digital Media Adapter (DMA) attached to your television and/or stereo, you can enable the media files you store on your media vault to play on these entertainment devices. The DMA accesses your stored media files and coordinates the streaming process between your media vault and the entertainment device. The media vault’s media server will work with both wired or wireless DMAs. Your network must have wireless functionality to use a wireless DMA.

Two conditions are required for media streaming with the media vault:

1.Your DMA must use Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) A/V streaming. (See UPnP A/V streaming explained below.)

2.Only the media files are available for media streaming. The types of files that are considered “media” are: photographs, music (audio), and video. Non-media files, such as Microsoft Word documents, are not available for streaming.

To access the Media Streaming screen:

Double-click the HP Media Vault icon on your desktop.

Click Customize your HP Media Vault’s setting.
