You can browse, search and play the media on your computer using a UPnP or DLNA enabled device such as a phone, TV or game console. Configure Media Sharing to allow these devices to access the folders containing your music, photos and videos.
You must have the Rygel package installed for Media Sharing to be visible.
- Open the Activities overview and start typing Sharing.
- Click on Sharing to open the panel.
- If Sharing is OFF, switch it to ON
- Select Media Sharing.
- Switch Share Media On This Network to ON.
- Click + to open the Choose a folder window. Navigate into the desired folder, Music in your Home directory for example, and click Open. Repeat for the other folders you wish to share, for example Pictures and Videos.
- Click Close. You will now be able to browse or play media in the folders you selected using the external device.
