Media Server 2 installation

The UPnP Media Server V2 App can turn your NAS into your home's multimedia streaming server.
As long as you have devices that support UPnP or DLNA (for example, SONY BRAVIA TV, SAMSUNG TV or PlayStation 3),
you can directly browse and stream the media files stored on your NAS.

Hi there,

First of all please download the package from this post: http://forum.asustor.com/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=1691
Second, install "JRE" apps from App Central
Last, Click "Other Sources" on App Central, and select the upnp-server-V2.1.0.0 APK file that you just download to install.

If you have any question, please let me know, okay?

Cheers,

Hi Yogi,
The UPnPv2 is a UPnP/DLNA media server, the ability of playing .mkv or .avi files will depend on your player (sony bravia in your case).
I personal like Boxee more since I can control it via my mobile phone and it can play most of my movies, musics and photos.
Why don't you run both of them and see which one you like most? ;)
