Why do I have problems playing some media via Media Link?
Verify the following:
There are a variety of different DLNA based media servers available that can be used with the
Moxi HD DVR but for the best end user experience we recommend the following ARRIS Group-
validated Digital Media Servers. (Consult your computer software manufacturer to see which
DLNA based media servers they officially support.) The DLNA media software on these servers
provide additional functionality such as streaming of YouTube or Hulu videos and the play back of
your Netflix instant DVD queue (PlayOn Digital Media Server software).
Windows Media Connect – Microsoft
PlayOn – MediaMall
TVersity Media Server – TVersity
TwonkyMedia Manager- TwonkyMedia
The following Digital Media File Formats are supported:
Natively supported media codecs
Media codecs supported through
Transcoding*
(*File types can be played by setting one of
the recommended Media Servers to
transcode to the natively supported
filetype.)
Images
Jpeg
PNG GIF, BMP
Audio
MP3, Windows Media Audio,
AAC (DRM unprotected), and
LPCM
LPCM
Video
MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4,
H.264, and WMV files
Why can’t I see all my PC-based files through Media Link?
The Media Link will only display supported multimedia files that are in the shared folder on your
network computer for Windows Media Player or any other UPnP compliant DMS program you use
to stream to your Moxi Mate.
Note: Windows Media Connect or other Digital Media Server software do not show media files that
are not supported, or not recognized, such as iTunes audio files in MP4 (AAC) format, photos in
Bitmap (.bmp) or Graphic Interface Format (.gif).
