1.6 PLAYING YOUR PC’S SHARED VIDEOS
When connected to your home WiFi network, your ARCHOS gives
you the possibility to watch, directly on your device, shared videos
stored in your PC’s Windows Media® Library.
For this to work, you will need a WiFi connection and Windows
Media® Player 11 or higher* installed on your PC.
The ARCHOS uses the UPnP (Universal Plug-and-play) standard to
stream shared videos from your PC’s Windows Media® Library.
See:
Playing your PC’s Shared Media Files
.
* There are other products on the market that also can share media files using
the UPnP standard.
