UPnP-AV Server
Network servers that support the
UPnP-AV standard can be
accessed through the network
(LAN or WLAN). The most usual
instance of such a server is a NAS
hard disc.
The name of a media server is
defined at the server itself.
It is however possible to use a
normal PC as a network server.
This though requires a UPnP-AV
software so that the MMM can find
a play stored music files. Such a
software is offered, for example, by
the company
Twonky Vision
with
the software
TwonkyMusic
.
The way a menu from such a
UPnP-AV server looks can be very
different, depending on the
configuration.
Menu from the Revox M37 MK2 Music
server
:
Menu from the Revox NAS server in the
development department:
You can make your selection using
the
Page
and
Select
navigation
softkeys, as with all other media
content. The individual selection
criteria are selected with the
Browse
softkey.
Important
:
Folder name
Music
The MMM can only find your music
tracks on the media server if they
are located in a folder called
Music
. Other folder names are not
recognised.
This folder can be displayed with
another name than Music in the
media server MMM folder. This is
very much dependant on the
settings and the various models of
these media servers. In the
example shown above, the network
folder
Music
is shown in the display
headline as
Musik
.
