Cleaning the disc:
Fingerprints and dirt on the disc surface may affect the audio and
video quality. Use a soft cloth to wipe the disc from the centre out
to the outside.
Disc storage:
If dirt/stains cannot be removed with a dry cloth, then wipe with a wet cloth, followed by a dry cloth. Do
not use any solvents such as thinners, alcohol or detergents, as these will damage the disc.
Do not place the discs in locations that receive direct sunlight or strong heat.
Place the discs securely in their cases when not being used.
About the user manual:
This manual describes the basic specifications of the Blu-ray player. Certain Blu-ray discs may have
special requirements or limitations that may not be compatible with this player.

Network Neighbourhood
DLNA Function and SMB
Create a file share server and DLNA server on your network.
This means you can play videos, music and pictures on devices connected to the same network remotely.
You only need hardware such as a computer or NAS server, with software acting as DLNA, SMB or CIFS.
Turn on “My Internet” in the setup menu, then press the “main menu” button and choose the internet icon
to check the lists which can be applied in the server.
In some cases, you may need to disable the firewall of the hardware so that the player can visit the server.
The player can share internet access through one of three methods:
1. As a digital media player (DMP): the player can search, visit and extract resources from local media
servers subjectively, which is equal to DLNA.
2. As a digital media renderer (DMR): the player plays resources pushed from a digital media
controller (DMC). In this case, media server with DMC functionality is required. For more
information on settings and usage, please check the instruction manuals of the relevant servers.
3. Visiting SMB/CIFS client side: the player can read files shared client side through the network, just
like visiting an external USB storage device. Most computers, especially those using the Microsoft
Windows OS have got SMB client side already.
Notes:
• NAS is a type of network equipment that provides file-based data storage services for other
network devices. These products are widely sold.
• SMB (Server Message Block) or CIFS (Common Internet File Systems) are usually named as the
Microsoft Windows Network. Without connecting extra media servers and performing any media
format conversions to reduce the processing load, it can maintain the original content quality.
• This media play is designed for compatibility with local network shared hardware and software.
Due to the diversity of NAS networks, media servers and configurations, we cannot 100%
guarantee that the media player will be completely compatible with your personal setup.
We will use Ark MC Lite as an example to explain how to use DMP and DMR:
To start with, you need to ensure that Ark MC Lite is installed to a mobile phone or tablet before opening
the software, then connect the phone and the player to the same router.
DMP:
1. Enter into the settings page from the home page of the blu-ray player General Settings Internet→ →
DLNA Turn On (see image below) press “Home” key (DLNA setting is on).→ → →
13
Page 15
2. After getting into the Network Neighbourhood from the home page, DLNA devices found by the
player will display (see image below). You can then browse and play the pictures, videos or music
on the devices.
DMR:
1. Turn on DLNA, Home Page General Settings System DMR Turn on (see image below). Press → → → →
[Home] key to go back to the home page. (DMR default setting is off).
2. Enable the software on your mobile phone, then access to the device when the servers search the
DMS device. Choose files that you want to play, then press the [Play] button. A window will pop-up
(as shown in the image below).
You can play it on your mobile phone or other devices. If you choose the
blu-ray player, then you can play files pushed by the mobile phone on it.
