Streaming Music, Movies, and Pictures
The Media Server supports playback of videos, music and pictures from any UPnP AV (Universal Plug
and Play Audio Visual) network media players, such as Playstation, Windows Media Player, or Xbox.
You can play back all your media files from your individual home computers by enabling
media aggregation
on your px12-400r. You can also connect USB mass storage devices (such as your iPod, mp3 player, or
USB drive) to your px12-400r and directly stream files through the device, or access media files through a
networked media player. Below are two examples of how to set up the following media players:
●
iTunes
●
Xbox 360
The procedures shown below are intended as examples. Your media player or version may
operate differently. It is recommended that you refer to your media player documentation for
instructions on how to add a network device.
Example: Setting up iTunes
1. Locate the source directory of your iTunes media content.
2. Drag, or copy, your existing media content to a Share that has media sharing enabled.
3. When you open the iTunes Library, iTunes will display all of the media content from the px12-400r.
Example: Setting up Xbox 360
1. Connect your Xbox 360 to your TV and to the same local network as your px12-400r.
2. Navigate to the Media Tab in Xbox 360 and select a media-enabled Share.
3. Select Computer from the options menu.
4. Click Yes, Continue when asked if you have downloaded and installed media sharing software
on your computer, since the px12-400r device comes preconfigured with this software.
5. Select px12-400r from the list of names. You should now see all the unsecured media content on
your device.
