12.0 Playing media through the network

The media player is equipped with a UPnP and Samba client. This way, the media

player will be able to stream media from a UPnP server or Samba server through your

network. Windows XP and Vista are usually equipped with Windows Media Player.

Since Windows Media Player 11 is the latest available version for these Windows

versions, we will explain this version for Windows XP and Vista. Also, Windows Media

Player 12 is mentioned as this is the default Media Player version in Windows 7.

12.1 Setting up Windows Media Player11 as UPnP server

(Windows XP and Vista)

Your computer does not share media by default. You will have to install a UPnP media

server on your computer to add this functionality. When using Media Player 11, you

can use the built-in UPnP media service of this program. If you enable this option,

your media player can access the music library on your computer. Follow the steps

below to enable this option:

1. Click ‘Start’.

2. Click ‘Programs’.

3. Click ‘Windows Media Player ‘.

4. Click ‘Tools’, then click ‘Options’. The following screen will be displayed:

7. Check the “Share my media” checkbox and click OK.
