UPnP-AV Server
Network servers that support the UPnP-
AV standard can be accessed through
the network (LAN or WLAN). The most
usual instance of such a server is a NAS
hard disc.
The name of a media server is defined at
the server itself.
It is however possible to use a normal PC
as a network server. This though
requires a UPnP-AV software so that the
MMM can find a play stored music files.
Such a software is offered, for example,
by the company
Twonky Vision with the
software
TwonkyMusic .
The way a menu from such a UPnP-AV
server looks can be very different,
depending on the configuration.
Menu from the Revox M37 MK2 Music server:
Menu from the Revox NAS server in the
development department:
You can make your selection using the
Page and Select navigation softkeys, as
with all other media content. The
individual selection criteria are selected
with the
Browse softkey.
Important:
Folder name Music
The MMM can only find your music
tracks on the media server if they are
located in a folder called
Music. Other
folder names are not recognised.
This folder can be displayed with
another name than Music in the media
server MMM folder. This is very much
dependant on the settings and the
various models of these media servers.
In the example shown above, the
network folder
Music is shown in the
display headline as
Musik.

software for Windows, Mac and Linux
