DLNA-compliant Media ServerSoftware spec & applied models
DiskStation can serve as a DLNA-compliant Digital Media Server (DMS) for you to enjoy the best possible multimedia experience. Digital contents such as music, photos, and videos can be streamed from a DiskStation to DLNA-certified products. Extend your digital entertainment to larger screens and awesome speakers that are nicely set up in your living room.
Your digital contents can be easily managed with plenty of options. You may customize the menu style, set browsing habits, and manage the DMA compatibility, conveniently in one interface. What’s more, you can enjoy the multimedia with fully-prepped video info without extra effort since the metadata from Video Station can be integrated directly into Media Server.
Synology Media Server comes with three system default folders for you to sort all digital contents, yet you are free to create more. You can index the folders and sub-folders within DiskStation so DLNA media players can quickly identify and stream within. Folders from the external drives can also be indexed for streaming.
DiskStation can be paired up with Sony PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Xbox 360 to act as a digital media adapter device. It is compatible with multimedia formats that are supported by the two devices. You can now browse and stream multimedia contents stored on DiskStation to stereo system and TV set with your most familiar devices.
