Enable UPnP to allow digital media players on the network to browse for media or live streams from your
system. There are two steps required to enabled UPnP, enabling UPnP for the system (including setting a share
name) and enabling UPnP per channel or recorder. By default, UPnP is disabled at the system level and for each
channel.
Streams and MPEG-TS recorded files must use the supported codecs: H.264 with MP3 or AAC
audio. Having a viewer password could prevent the ability to use UPnP.
To enable UPnP:
1. Connect to the admin interface using your preferred connection mechanism. See
.
2. Login as admin.
3. Click the UPnP link in the Configuration section; the UPnP configuration page opens.
