8. Media centre
With the DR 463, you can play music tracks using UPnP or DLNA. The difference between the two
technologies lies in the direction of access.
The UPnP server can be accessed from the DR 463 and its music will be played back. Control and
navigation are done by the DR 463.
With DLNA, playback can be started on a PC, for example, and the DR 463 is only selected as a
playback device.
