• The Home Media Gallery functions as a WMDRM10-ND
(Microsoft Windows Media DRM for networked devices).
Content can only be navigated from the media servers that
support WMDRM10-ND. Content may not play, depending on
the DRM protection level.
• This system may not display content from incompatible memory
cards.
• On rare occasions while using Home Media Gallery, a discharge
of static electricity may force the menu to close. If the menu
closes unexpectedly, turn the display and the Media Receiver
off, turn them back on then repeat the steps from the beginning
to open the Home Media Gallery menu again.
Network connections
To connect to a network, set up the Home Media Gallery through the
Home Media Gallery menu. Press the HMG button on the remote
control to cause the menu to appear. To use the Home Media
Gallery, connect to a home network (LAN) via an Ethernet hub or
cable directly to a media server.
Usable media servers
A media server contains digital content such as movies, music, and
photo files. PCs that have pre-installed media server software and
recorders with a media server function are considered the media
server. There are some media servers that you can choose from; for
example, Windows Media Connect, Windows Media Player that has
a media sharing function, and DLNA compliant servers.
• Windows Media Connect 2.0
Windows Media Connect runs on a 32-bit PC with Windows XP
Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed.
When it is already installed, you can enjoy Home Media Gallery
using your PC.
• Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP
Windows Media Player 11 features Media Sharing that runs on
a 32-bit PC with Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed.
If Windows Media Connect 2.0 is not installed in your PC, you
can download Windows Media Player 11 from Microsoft’s
website.
• Windows Media Player 11 for Windows Vista
Windows Media Player 11 is featured in 32-bit Windows Vista
PCs.
When selecting the most suitable media server, please visit
Microsoft’s website for system requirements, known issues,
installation procedures, and other updated information.
• DLNA CERTIFIED TM digital media servers
The server is a DLNA-certified digital media server such as PC
software, PCs and other devices installed with DLNA-certified
software. When a PC running DLNA server software or other
DLNA-compatible device is connected to this player, some
setting changes of the software or device may be required.
Refer to the device(s) operating instructions for more
information.
Connect via an Ethernet hub
If already operating one or more media servers on a home or local
area network (LAN), connect the Media Receiver to the Ethernet
(LAN) hub using a standard (“straight-through”) Ethernet (LAN)
cable. See the diagram below.
Note
• Although the Home Media Gallery supports 10BASE-T, it is
better to use 100BASE-TX for improved display quality and
speed.
