Operate the Home Media Gallery
With Home Media Gallery, you can enjoy digital content such as
movies, music, and photo files on your high-end flat screen TV. Play
content from files stored on one or more media servers connected

flash drive. After connecting via a broadband router or an Ethernet
hub to a media server with network software, navigate through the
digital content visible on the Home Media Gallery. The flat screen TV
supports Mass Storage Class and PTP devices through USB
interface and DLNA-compatible devices through the network.
