Streaming With A Pc; A) General Confi Guration And Use - Conrad 87 45 00 Bedienungsanleitung

11. Streaming with a PC

a) General Confi guration and Use
You may stream media contents from your computer to your TV wirelessly with the device. This
requires some settings.
This uses the streaming function of Windows® 7 or 8 by default. However, it is required to use
a separate streaming software. It must support "DMC" (Digital Media Controller). Windows®
XP or Vista offers no internal streaming function. Therefore, a separate software is required
TM
in any case.
Please note:
The internal streaming function of Windows® 7 or 8 can only play back a few
fi le formats, such as videos in the format "WMV" or images in the format "JPG".
Therefore, we recommend testing the confi guration with a Windows® example
video fi rst.
The description refers to Windows® 7. The confi guration for Windows® 8 is near-identical, how-
ever. Apart from this, it is assumed that you have already applied chapters 7 to 9 to the product.
It may also be sensible to fi rst test the play mode as described in chapter 10.
Before you start confi guration, your WLAN connection should already be established and the
enclosed software started.
In our example, we assume that your PC is currently connected to the receiver via WLAN. It is
additionally connected to your home network via LAN.
• First, open the "Network and Sharing Center" of Windows®.
For this, click the network icon in the task bar and then "Open Network and Sharing Center".
• As shown in the fi gure below, your PC is connected with your home network (1) and with the
receiver (2) via WLAN at the same time.
