6.2 PLAYING YOUR PC’S SHARED MEDIA FILES (UPNP)
When connected to your home WiFi network, your ARCHOS gives you the possi-
bility to watch, directly on your device, shared media files (videos, music or pho
-
tos) 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*.
This is especially useful when you have a large library of music and video and you
cannot fit it all onto the internal hard drive of the ARCHOS.
The ARCHOS uses the UPnP (Universal Plug-and-play) standard to stream shared
media files from your PC’s Windows Media® Library.
