Does anyone has any idea on how does Media Server feature works in Satio ?
I am connected to my wireless home network. But can I access the phone from my laptop through same wireless network ?

The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) technology enables consumer products from different vendors to communicate and create a complete media entertainment system in your home. With the Network sharing feature in your mobile, you can let your phone serve as a mobile digital media server to share the content in your phone with family and friends. With this feature enabled, you can enjoy the vacation photos and the music you have in you mobile, wirelessly on any other DLNA enabled device in your home.

run app and then go to your windows meadia player and selec U1 and here you go, your phone files in your pc

Hm...
Im not sure that Windows Media will recognize it by just doing so..devices with DLNA technologies enabled will work wirelessly.

Just my two cents i could be wrong
***corrections .. sorry he is correct..it should be working since i havent play with windows media for ages

Posted by bahraini
am using it with my PS3
and it works great
Posted by eltoffer
forgot to mention
only on vista and seven is available, not sure if only getting the latest WMP version works but at least on my pc it is working
Posted by dipb
where un WMP to select U1 ? From File > Open ? If so, I still cannot see the U1 on the network.
I am running XP SP3 though. Can that be a problem ?
Posted by eltoffer
yes you need vista or seven, or try just installing WMP 12

Working on my PS3 too, its a bit slow (takes a while to recognise all of the folders on my phone then takes a while to actually start playing the song) compared to using my PC as a media server, but i suppose thats what you expect from a phone
Its a shame you can only use it for pictures and music, not video
But still nice feature to have.

I dont think the 'Media Sharing' app on the Satio supports video at all. I believe it only supports still pictures (photos) and music, which is a shame. You could test it by putting an AVI on the Satio memory card then try to play it via PS3. Im at work so cant test it at the moment, but i'm 90% sure the Satio media sharing app only supports pictures/music NO Video
EDIT - Satio media sharing app ONLY support PHOTO/MUSIC not VIDEO:
'DLNA support for easy transfer of audio and still pictures (no video support)'

any other players that can be used with the satio media server?
Posted by harvy2001
i was sure media server should mean i can browse my windows media collection and ps3 collection over my local LAN.
i dont get it though how do you browse them from the satio???????
i see no option?

I may be wrong bit I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that SE have only implemented DLNA as a server and not as a client which means one way traffic only.

I tried Satio's Media Server yesterday with my network Media Player device.
To my surprise the player immediately spotted the phone and played the high resolution photos on TV.
Only delay I noticed is loading up the photos which I think is because of slow wireless connection or the phone is responding slowly.
I need to do more research on this and let you know if it plays music and video as well.

The player (in my case PS3 and WMP through my PC) both pick the Satio up very quickly (as soon as the app is started) which is expected.
I have little delay when loading the photos, try playing a music file, this is where my delay was (prob about 5-10 sec delay before the song started playing). I dont think this is because of slow Wireless connection, as streaming files from my PC to PS3 have no delays what so ever. I believe its phone responding slowly.
It only streams photo and music NO video as mentioned in previous posts above.

I see the Satio on my home network as a Media-device, WMP does not recognize it however.
My Sony Bravia TV recognizes the Satio and I can watch the photo's and listen to the Music on the Satio. It displays the album art too! cool.
I can not watch the videos, but that's a limitation of the TV.

Hi,
Probably a silly question but how do I enable DLNA in my Satio or do I have to download that app first (from where please)?
Thank you.
