8. Access pictures stored inside UPnP/DLNA servers on the local network
This device is UPnP/DLNA compatible, which makes it possible to access photos stored on the local
network inside a "UPnP/DLNA servers" directly from the device itself without copying the pictures
inside it's local memory.
To access your UPnP/DLNA server content from the device go to the "My Local Pictures" menu then
choose "My Network Devices". The device will automatically scan for devices on the network and
display a list of those supporting UPnP/DLNA (Note: Make sure your Wi-Fi connection is configured
properly before entering this menu).
Once a UPnP/DLNA server is found you will see it on the device menu, just select it then enter the
menu to browse its content and launch a slide show of the selected folders.
When playing a slide show of a UPnP/DLNA source the pictures are pulled out from the server in
streaming mode so it is necessary to keep the UPnP/DLNA server running so that the device can play
the slide show without interruption. Also, the Wi-Fi needs to be constantly available.
Note: Some UPnP/DLNA servers need a special configuration in order to work properly with the
device. Do not hesitate to check our BLOG where some explanation are provided or directly contact
us by email at info@pix-star.com.
