Playing files on a Digital Media Renderer device

Using DLNA™ technology, you can push media content saved on your device to

another device connected to the same Wi-Fi® network. The other device must be

able to function as a Digital Media Renderer (DMR) device and render or play content

received from your device. A TV with DLNA features or a PC running Windows® 7 or

higher are examples of DMR devices.

The settings for enabling the Digital Media Renderer may vary depending on the device. Refer
