NOTE:
Playing video files over remote access requires the same plug-ins
you have installed on your home computer . Video playback support over
remote access depends on the broadband speeds of both your home
connection and remote connection . Video playback should be limited to
smaller video files, as larger video files may take a long time to load and
play .

DLNA-certified) devices, such as a digital media adapter or a gaming console with a
built-in media player .
