Additional Information • This section describes about general ideas of DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) and NAS (Network Attached Storage). This Unit DLNA “DLNA” stands for Digital Living Network Alliance, and is a guideline to promote standardization of interconnection of home network devices such as digital consumer electronics. DLNA components are separated into four device classes: Digital Media Server (DMS), Digital Media Renderer (DMR), Digital Media Player (DMP) and Digital Media Controller (DMC). “Digital Media Server (DMS)” is a device that is used to store or distribute digital contents such as music files. For the system using this unit, PCs and NAS are regarded as “Digital Media Server (DMS)”. “Digital Media Controller (DMC)” is a device to control digital contents. The dedicated mobile device application corresponds to “Digital Media Controller (DMC)” for the system using this unit. “Digital Media Renderer (DMR)” is a device to receive instructions from “Digital Media Controller (DMC)” and play back digital contents such as this unit. Similarly, “Digital Media Player (DMP)” is a device that can play back digital contents stored on “Digital Media Server (DMS)”. NAS “NAS” stands for Network Attached Storage. By connecting your NAS and home network with a network cable directly, NAS can be a storage device, such as a hard disc drive. If your NAS is compatible with DLNA, you can share your music, pictures, or movies on the same home network as a digital media server.
