In-home Network Media Sharing

(Network Attached Storage) and install and configure software which is functionally equivalent to DLNA or

SMB/CIFS (a network file sharing protocol) client. Set the My Network selection to On in the Setup Menu

(details on page 76), press the HOME button on the remote to bring the Home Menu, select the Network

icon and press ENTER button to show the list of available servers. In some case, you might need to

disable the firewall on the hardware to allow BDP-103 to see the server.

The BDP-103 player can perform network sharing in one of the following three ways:

As a digital media player (DMP): the player can actively search, access and pull content from

local media servers which is functionally equivalent to DLNA.

As a digital media renderer (DMR): the player plays content received (“pushed”) from a digital

media controller (DMC). A DMC-capable media server is required. Refer to the server’s

respective user instructions for correct configuration and operation.

Accessing a SMB/CIFS client: the player can directly access files shared through SMB/CIFS

clients over the network, as if accessing an external USB hard drive. Most computers, especially

those installed with Windows, already have an SMB client embedded. Please refer to respective

OS instructions to set up the SMB/CIFS shared file/folder.

NOTE

NAS is a networked appliance that provides file-based data storage services to other devices

on the network. Commercial products are available on the market.

SMB (Server Message Block) or CIFS (Common Internet File System) is mostly known as

Microsoft Windows Network. It does not require an extra media server or perform any media

format transcoding, which reduces the processing load and keeps the original content quality.

Compatibility with local network sharing hardware/software is on a best effort basis with no

guarantee, due to variations in NAS devices, media servers and their configurations.

The BDP-103 can remotely play back music, photo, and video files stored on media devices that are

connected to the same home network. You will need to prepare hardware such as a computer or NAS
