    Published on 2017-08-24

    Before you start: * Connect your player to your home network * Connect your PC to the same network * Make sure that your PC firewall allows you to run WMP programs Note: Depending on your version of Microsoft Windows, the screens might look different to the following screens.

    2. Click the Library tab and select Media Sharing

    3. The first time you run Media Sharing on your PC, a pop-up screen appears

    Check the Share my media box and click OK. The Media Sharing screen appears

    4. In the Media Sharing screen, make sure that you see a device marked as Unknown Device

    Note: If you do not see an unknown device after a minute or so, your PC firewall might be blocking the connection.
