About a home network

This Player can display and play movies, photos and music content from your DLNA-compatible digital media servers (such as a PC and consumer electronics).

Before accessing DLNA servers:

DLNA servers and this player must be connected to the same local area network. Specify the settings required for connecting this player to the local area network.

DLNA servers must be turned on.

When a PC running DLNA server software or other DLNA-compatible devices are connected to this player, some setting changes of software or other devices may be required.

Please refer to the operating instructions for the software or devices for more information.

To enjoy this function, make a broadband Internet connection to both your PC and this player (See pages 18–19), and then set communication settings (See pages 46–49), then perform the following operation.
