Media Player
The Media Player feature allows you to play audio files (AAC, AIFF,
AU, FLAC, MP3,WAV and WMA (except lossless)) and playlists (M3U)
created by your computer's Media Player, such as Window Media Player
11 or 12. It has been verified to work on Windows 2000, Windows XP,
Windows Vista and Windows 7.
Note: File sharing may need to be enabled on your computer, and not
all Media Players will allow sharing of music files. Please refer to your
computer's manual for instructions.
UPnP Servers
Setting up UPnP Server in PC
1. Use Windows Media Player 11(or 12 if you use Windows 7)to setup
the PC as an UPnP Sever, click the 'Library' tab from Windows Media
Player 11 and select 'Media Sharing' to open the 'Media Sharing'
window to set the option.
2. Your PC will now prompt you that a device has attempted to connect
to your UPnP server. Please click Allow button.
Note: As of this writing, Windows Media Player 11 does not support
AAC decoding used by Apple as the default selection in iTunes. We
recommend that you change the default import setting to WAV, AIFF,
or MP3 formats for maximum compatibility across many devices.
You can set Windows Media Player to mirror your iTunes folders.
Windows Media Player 12 (for Windows 7) does support AAC.
3. Go into 'Media Player' menu, and select 'UPnP Servers' sub menu
by turning and pressing the PUSH-SELECT knob
for all available UPnP servers. It will display '[Empty]' if no UPnP servers
are found.
