LaCinema Classic HD User Manual Sharing Files Throughout Your Home Network page 45 6.2. Play Files on Networked Media Players LaCinema is both a network media player and server. It can play content located on a local network server and also share the content located on its internal storage to other UPnP- and DLNA-compatible digital media players on your network. Examples include Playstation, XBox, DLNA TV or mobile phones, Kodak Photoframe, and Philips Streamium. The media server function will allow you to view your content on a compatible media player in a different room in your home via your home network. Follow these steps: 1. Make sure your LaCinema Classic HD is connected to your network (Fig. 78) and has been assigned an IP address (for details, see 6.1.4. STEP 4: Configure Network Settings). 2. Activate Media Servers service in the Settings Space (see section 10.6.3. Media Servers) (Fig. 79). 3. Now you will be able to play files located on the LaCinema Classic HD on any other UPnP/DLNA-certified player/adapter connected to your network. For a typical configuration, see section 6.2.1. UPnP Usage Example: XBOX. NOTE: Content located on the LaCinema internal HDD or attached USB disk will scanned and then shared in your home to other UPNP DLNA media players. TECHNICAL NOTE: Once the media server function is activated, it will take few seconds for the server to become available to the UPnP player. As the content needs to be analyzed (artist, genre, etc.), this process can take several minutes. When new content is added to the LaCinema Classic HD's internal storage, it should appear few minutes following the completion of the transfer. The same delay should occur when adding or removing the a USB device containing multimedia content. LaCinema Classic HD Network Router DLNAcompatible TV Fig. 78 Fig. 79
