protocol, can communicate with each other using the network and therefore are able
to exchange data from one device to the other. Using the following steps we will
explain how the EM7080’s Samba server can be used.

1. Make sure you have built-in a hard disk in the media player. This mandatory, the
Samba server does require a hard disk.

media player and transfer data to the media player’s hard disk and transfer data from
the media player’s hard disk to your computer. For this, you need to know the media
