Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) technology allows devices to connect to each other, and simplifies communication and the sharing of data and media in the home. Media servers are available for most operating systems and many hardware platforms.

Your device functions as a UPnP client and can auto-detect media servers that are connected to the same local network as your device and are configured accordingly.

The Media player application provides access to media servers in the wireless environment. The available servers are displayed at the bottom of the main Media player view. You cannot delete the servers from the main Media player view nor delete media from them.
