UPNP

The full name of UPNP is Universal Plug and Play.
UPNP criterion is based on TCP/IP protocol as well as new internet protocols
aim at communication between facilities. In fact, UPNP is made in the hope
that all the facilities connected to the internet can communicate without being

16

interrupted by gateway in the future, so that our communication in the internet
can become more fluently, documents transmission can become more
convenient by using software that supports UPNP, and internet applications
which cannot be used before can be operated in the future. These are all the
convenience brought by UPNP.
This product is a multimedia player that supports UPNP. Before using UPNP
function, please make sure that computer connected with the product in LAN
has installed software that support UPNP. If not, please install a multimedia
play software or share software that support UPNP gateway protocol, and
then open the UPNP share function in the software, so that the access speed
can be quickened largely.
For example, connect the player to the family LAN, and then multimedia
documents shared in the Media Player 11 software in the computer in study
can be accessed in the living room through UPNP.
Firstly, connect the player to the family LAN. You can refer to network
connection instructions to connect the player.
Secondly, install software that support UPNP gateway protocol.
Before using UPNP function, you need to install software that support UPNP
gateway protocol in your computer and then start the share function. Such as
install a Media Player 11 software that support UPNP function (remark:
former edition of Media Player 11 doesn’t support UPNP function) in your
computer.
Thirdly, share documents through setting the software.
After installing the software, open the software’s interface, choose “Media
Base” in the main interface of the software, and then choose “add to the
media base” in the pull-down menu. After adding some documents or folders
to the media base, choose “media share” in the pull-down menu. You can
also set the types and positions for the shared documents, such as “music,
picture or video” and so on.
Fourthly, use the player’s UPNP function.
When the setting of the shared documents is finished, choose UPNP option

17

computers installed with UPNP software in LAN. Enter your computer, and
you can see multimedia documents shared through Media Player 11 in your

network function. The player can access to computers without being
interrupted by gateway, avoiding fussy operations like inputting user name,
password and so on. Meanwhile, the function of UPNP is stronger, for
example, through setting the options of Media Player 11, multimedia

you want among plenty of documents, bringing convenience. All the above
are advantages of UPNP.

a) Unsupported format.
Your Player supports a great variety of media file formats, a detailed list can
be found at the end of these instructions. If you try to play a file that uses an
unsupported file format,a message will be displayed. If you want to check the

39

utilized audio and video format for amedia file, you can refer to
“specification”chapter.
b) The chosen media source is not connected to the PLAYER
If you select a media source that is not currently connected to the Player,
such as a USB stick, this source will be displayed as empty. As soon as a
device is connected, the content appears in the respective path.
If no folders or files are displayed for a resource connected via the network,
check the settings for your network and your network shares. Please check
the user name and password, if they are required for access, and also the
firewall settings of your computers.

Q:I want to copy files onto an external data storage device with my
Player, but I always get an error message.

A:To use the copy function of your Player, the device (or the partition), that
you want to copy the data onto, must be formatted with one of the following
file systems:FAT, FAT32, NTFS, ext3.
Please use only targets formatted with FAT, FAT32, NTFS or ext3 for copying
onto.

Q:I want to perform a firmware update for my Player but my television
goes blank.

A:In some cases, the display via HDMI is not correct during a firmware
update.
Please make sure that your Player is also connected to your television via the
composite video connection during the firmware update, not only via HDMI,
and select the composite video input as the active input of your television

.

Q:I want to access files with the Player that I have shared in my network.
My home network ist working correctly, but the Player does not list the
files.

A: If you do not have access to the shared files, please check the following
points:

40

1) Check if the network cable is connected properly at both sides, i.e. to the

Player
and to your network.

2) Make sure that the computer that you want to access is running and not in

a standby or idle mode.

3) Check the network and file sharing settings on your computer.

4) Check that you have entered the correct user name and password. Please

note that they are case sensitive.

5) Make sure that your firewall settings permit the Player to access your

computer.

6) If you want to access files that are stored on a USB data storage device

which is connected to a router and thus made available as network storage,
please note that you must set up a connection to the drive using "My_Sho
rtcuts ". To do so, you must enter the IP address of your router as well as the
user name and the password necessary to access the network storage.

Q:How is it possible that the playback of a file from a shared folder in
the network is aborted?

A: The energy saving settings of the computer or the NAS interrupt the
connection.

If the energy saving settings of your computer or your NAS are active, then
they can go into an idle state or a sleep mode even though they are being
accessed via the network. During a sleep mode no data is transferred via the
network. Please adjust the energy saving settings of the media source so that
it does not go into a sleep mode while you play files via the network.

Q:Why is it possible that there are interruptions when playing movies
from my local network?

A: Sometimes, there are several devices in a network that have to share the
maximum data transfer rate possible via a network connection (shared
medium). If there are several connections active in the network you use the
Player in (e.g. to the internet, a shared printer, etc.), it is possible that this

41

lowers the data transfer rate available for the streaming of the data to the
Player to a level that is insufficient for the playback of e.g. a DVD file or
an HD movie file. Should you experience such problems, please try to reduce
the amount of data transferred by other users of your network.

Q: While using the Player, it no longer responds to my commands.

A: This problem may have several causes. Please check the following items:

1) Please aim the remote control in the direction of the Player so that direct

visual contact between these two devices exists and ensure that the infrared
receiver of the remote control and the Player are not covered.

2) Check the battery in the remote control and, if necessary, replace it with a

new one.

Q:I have connected the Player to my TV via HDMI and I want to change
the video output signal, but the video output resolution I want to use is
not available.
