is connected to the same LAN segment as your PlayOn.TV server and that

PlayOn Settings
A number of options can be configured in PlayOn Settings. Also, PlayOn Settings is a good
place to start looking for help when you are experiencing technical problems. Open Start Menu
/ All Programs / PlayOn / PlayOn Settings, and review the available options.
UPnP Server Status
The status of the PlayOn UPnP server can be seen in PlayOn Settings as well. If the server is
running, it allows devices to connect to this PC. You can left-click the status panel to force
PlayOn Settings to determine the status of the server. The various status messages are
described below:
Searching
A search is still being performed. Wait for it to finish.
Running
The PlayOn server is running correctly with no errors detected.
Not Running
The PlayOn server is not running.
Not Found
The PlayOn server could not be discovered on the network.
Check firewall settings if you think it should be running.
Initializing
The PlayOn server is still initializing. Click the status panel
to restart the search.
No Service
The MediaMall service is not enabled. You can enable this service
in Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services.
No SSDP
The SSDP Discovery Service on this PC is disabled. Without it,
PlayOn Settings cannot detect the PlayOn server. You can enable
this service in Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services.
Error
An error occurred when trying to detect the server status. Contact
support for assistance.
You can manually start and stop the server by pressing the Start/Stop button. When stopping
the server, note that if any devices are connected to this PC, those connections will be closed.
They can of course be re-established by the device(s) once the server is restarted.
You can also disable or enable PlayOn from running automatically when Windows starts, as
well as show an optional icon in the system tray, which allows you to see the status of the
PlayOn server, and to open PlayOn Settings through a right-click menu option.
Video Performance
If you are experiencing latent or choppy video playback while using PlayOn, you may want to
modify the performance settings to a lower value. This can be especially useful if either your
PC processor is a bit slow, or if you are using a home wireless network or broadband
connection that is not fast enough. A higher performance setting will attempt to preserve the
