Network Access
UPnP
UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows you to connect UPnP-enabled devices (available on the network)
seamlessly with Mvix Ultio and share their content with the media player. In most situations, small, freely-
available applications can be installed on your PC to make it UPnP-enabled. Amongst others, applications
such as like TVersity® (http://www.tversity.com) or PlayOn® (http://www.themediamall.com/playon) allow
you to share your media over your network. Using Mvix Ultio, you can connect to your PC over the network
and stream media / content to your TV. These applications will also allow you to connect to online video
services such as YouTube, Joost, Hulu and many more.
Using a combination of an application such as Tversity® or PlayOn®, you can access large number of online
video channels on to your LCD or Plasma.
Install a UPnP AV server (such as Tversity® or PlayOn®) on your PC. Follow instructions provided in
these applications for installation.
Connect both the PC and the Mvix player to the network, over a router or network-switch.
