Viewing with UPnP

Using a software or hardware media player, you can browse for files or streams with Universal Plug and Play

(UPnP). UPnP uses MPEG-TS over HTTP with the H.264 codec and MP3 or AAC audio encoding (or no audio). You

can only access live streams or recordings that meet these requirements.

For security reasons the default behavior prevents UPnP access to live streams and recorded files.

To enable UPnP, see Stream content using UPnP
