Chapter 3 Media Server
The MG-800HD supports UPnP Server and also comes with its own Digital Media
Server software (MediaGate DMS) which users can use on their option.
UPnP Server
The MG-800HD will automatically detect all available UPnP AV compliant content
severs on boot up and list them on “My Media” page. No additional setup is necessary
on the MG-800HD itself.
MediaGate Digital Media Server
The MG-800HD comes with Digital Media Server software that runs in a computer on
your home network. To play media files on PC, MG-800HD must be connected to
the network, and the Digital Media Server software must be running. Digital Media
Server software is easy to install from the Installer CD. After installation, it can be
configured to automatically start when Windows system is up. You may use the Digital
Media Server to scan for additional media at any time. Following is the detailed
