connecting a DLNA device to your local area network so you can access
content on the My Passport Wireless Pro/My Passport Wireless SSD
device. Go to http://www.dlna.org for a list of DLNA-certified devices
and for further information.
The My Passport Wireless Pro/My Passport Wireless SSD drive can be enabled to
serve as your home's Plex or DLNA media server. It streams photos, music, and
videos to your Plex- or DLNA-compatible devices so you can play media on a
compatible device easily. Plex- or DLNA-compatible devices search for media
stored on the drive if streaming is enabled on the Media page. Streaming is enabled
by default.
With streaming enabled, just transfer your multimedia content to your My Passport
Wireless Pro/My Passport Wireless SSD drive, and you are ready to stream and
view content on your home entertainment center, game consoles (for example,
Xbox 360
®
or PlayStation
®
3), WD TV Live
®
media player, or DLNA
®
2.0 digital media
adapters), and other PC computers on your home or
office network
If you have a DLNA server or media player (e.g., VidOn or Skifta) on your phone or
other mobile device, the My Passport Wireless Pro/My Passport Wireless SSD drive
can stream media to it. Visit http://www.dlna.org for further information about
DLNA. For more information about the Plex server, please visit http://www.plex.tv
Enabling Media Streaming

your media database on the My Passport Wireless Pro/My Passport Wireless SSD
