Sharing Media Files
The ScreenPlay TV Link DX is UPnP/DLNA compliant to make it easy to connect and share media
content in the digital home. You can share media files across your home network or access media
content from a media server or external USB devices.
Using External USB Devices
The ScreenPlay TV Link DX will automatically recognize supported media content on external USB
devices that are formatted NTFS, FAT32, Mac OS Extended (HFS+), Ext2, or Ext3. Simply connect
the USB device to one of the USB host ports on the ScreenPlay TV Link DX, then use the TV
interface to select the type of media you want to view or play from the USB device. Select "USB"
from the list of available locations to browse media content and select files you want to play. The
ScreenPlay TV Link DX will assign a number to the USB device depending on which port it's
connected to.
NOTE: The USB host ports on the ScreenPlay TV Link DX can support only one host-powered
external hard drive at a time. You can connect additional USB devices at the same time if they
draw very little power from the USB bus. For example, you could connect one 2.5" portable hard
drive, plus a flash or pen USB drive and an Iomega WiFi adapter.
