Frequently Asked Questions (continued)
If I am running Windows
®
Media Connect, do I need
to run the D-Link
®
Media Server software?
No, you may run both applications but it is not necessary to run both at
the same time.
What about Copy Protection and DRM support?
The most common method of copy protection is WMA DRM (Digital
Rights Management). The DSM-320RD can play these types of files if
you are using the Windows
®
Media Connect software. For instructions
on configuring Windows
®
Media Connect, please see page 29.
Can I use my Universal remote control?
No, the DSM-320RD is not compatible with a universal remote but you
can use a remote with learning ability.
Can I connect the DSM-320RD directly to a PC
without using a router or a hub?
Yes, please make note of the following:
Wireless Users
: Set the Mode to Ad-Hoc in the wireless settings.
Wired Users
: Connect an Ethernet cable directly from the DSM-320RD’s
Ethernet port to the Ethernet port on your PC. The DSM-320RD’s
Ethernet port is Auto MDI/MDI-X, so a special Ethernet cable is not
required.
All Users
: If DHCP software isn’t running on your computer, you will
need to assign a static IP address to the DSM-320RD.
Note: Online Media and firmware upgrades are not available without
an Internet connection.
How do I change the bit rate of an audio file?
There are various conversion programs available for download on the
Internet.
