Reference: Using Media Share Features

When the appropriate Media Share options are enabled in the IP Environment / Media Share Menu (see “Accessing the IP Environment Menu” and “Media Share Setup” on pages 54 and 60, as necessary), guests have the ability to use one or more of the following Media Share features:

•Smart Share: Allows guests to use the STB/display panel to access and view media files (photos, videos, music, etc.) shared either by wired DLNA Certified devices (the devices must be connected to the same

LAN as the STB) or by wireless LG devices using LG’s Smart Share application with Wi-Fi Direct.

•Screen Share: Allows guests to select a Miracast or WiDi capable device, whose screen can be displayed on the display panel screen.

•SoftAP: Allows guests to use the STB as a 2.4 GHz wireless access point for up to five devices.

This section provides an overview of the Smart Share, Screen Share, and SoftAP functionality.

Note: Typically, only one Media Share feature may be used at a time. If one feature is currently in use, you may have to turn it OFF in order to turn ON another. In some cases, you will be prompted to confirm your action. Follow the display prompts as necessary.

Smart Share

The following steps describe how to access and use the Smart Share feature, either with wired DLNA Certified devices on the same LAN as the STB or using wireless LG devices/Wi-Fi Direct. If you intend to connect to an LG device using Wi-Fi Direct, remember that you must also turn ON Wi-Fi Direct and launch the Smart Share application on the LG device.

1.Turn ON the STB/display panel.

The next step depends on whether you need to turn ON Wi-Fi Direct (i.e., to connect to a wireless LG device):

•If you do not need to turn ON Wi-Fi Direct, you can proceed directly to step 7.

•Otherwise, press MENU on the Installer Remote to display the STB menus (either the setup menus or the Function Menu depending on whether the STB is or is not in Pass-through Mode). Then, continue with step 2.

2.Use the Up/Down arrows to select/highlight the General menu icon, and then press OK.
