Windows 'Play to' / 'Cast to Device' function
If you use Windows 7, 8, 8.1 or 10 it is possible to choose a music album,
track or playlist at the computer and then tell Windows that this should be
played on the speaker using the 'Play to' function (called 'Cast to Device'
in Windows 10).
Similar functionality is available for other computer types and for handheld
devices using Apple's iOS or Android operating systems. In this mode the
speaker operates as a Digital Media Renderer (known as DMR mode).
1. Ensure your speaker is plugged in and connected to your network.
