3 _NETWORK STREAMING
3.1 _THE UPNP PROTOCOL
The Altitude
16
network streamer feature is based on the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
set of networking protocols. In the UPnP/DLNA terminology, the Altitude
16
is a UPnP Digital
Media Rendering device and is used as external equipment to play media content sent
through the network.
The Altitude
16
must be used with DLNA/UPnP compatible server and controller devices. The Media Server shares its
media library on the network with UPnP clients. The Media Controller is the master device used to automatically detect
servers, play files on external devices aswell as to control them.
Provided that the server supports these formats, the Altitude
16
can decode and play high-resolution 24 bit/96 kHz WAV,
AIFF, FLAC, 16 bit/96 kHz OGG music files.
3.2 _UPNP NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
This architecture represents the most common and comfortable method to play media
files in a domestic environment:
• A Network-Attached Storage (NAS) or a computer is used as UPnP server and shares the media library.
• The library is browsed from a Media Controller, installed on a tablet or smartphone.
• The Altitude
16
is selecting a rendering device from the Media Controller
!
NOTE: Most NAS are UPnP compatible servers but any computer can be turned into a server provided that a
compatible UPnP server software is installed.
Several applications can turn smartphones and tablets into media controllers or servers.
