Home Network

With your Alpha Media Player, you can access your com-

puter’s music, video, and photos from the comfort of your

living room.

Setup

Home Network allows you to stream media from your computer to your Alpha

Media Player. Because Home Network is DLNA ®-based, it is completely plug

and play; if your computer is connected to your home network and has a DLNA

server, you should automatically see that computer listed in the Home Network

category of the main menu.

To make sure that Home Network will function properly, make sure that:

• Your computer is set up to share content according to your server’s instruc-

tions

• Your server software is not blocked by a Firewall

DLNA Servers

Although any DLNA server will work with Home Network, the following DLNA

servers have been fully tested with your Alpha Media Player:

• Windows Media Connect

• TVersity Media Server

• TwonkyMedia Manager

• Media Mall PlayOn
