The Remote DNA Playback Capabilities: A Practical Guide to Controlling Your Devices
Hello and welcome to this video from Tech.com, where I'll be showing you the remote DNA playback capabilities specifically remote controlling one DLNA device from another. In my previous video regarding DLNA, many of you have asked me to provide a demo, so here's an opportunity for me to do just that.
For this demonstration, I'm using a Android tablet as the source device, but you can use any Android phone or tablet - it doesn't matter what type of device you have. To make things easier, I'll be using a third-party app called Two Player, which is available for download directly from the Android Market. This app allows me to control and stream media from one device to another, utilizing the DLNA feature.
The first step in this process is to select the source of your media server. In this case, my media server is an NAS (Network-Attached Storage) device, which is connected to my router. However, for this demonstration, I won't be using my local Android tablet as the source, but instead will use it as the target device. This allows me to control and stream media from one device to another.
Once I've selected my media server as the source, I need to select the target device. In this case, my target device is a local Android tablet. Now that both devices are set up, I can browse through some of the music on my NAS, which is being pulled directly from my DNA server. The music library is displayed on the screen, and I can easily navigate through it.
Now that I've selected a song to play, if you notice that the target device is playing the music, but not in the best way to listen to music - something like having it amplified too loudly or having poor sound quality. This is because the music is being played on my local Android tablet, which may not be the most suitable device for listening to music.
To fix this issue, I need to select another media server that supports DLNA and can play back music in a more suitable way. In this case, I've chosen my music system, which is attached to WD TV and supports DLNA. Now, if I hit the play button, you'll notice that the music starts playing from my music system, but not on the local Android tablet.
However, this is exactly what I want - for the music to start playing from my music system in another room, so I can control it remotely using my Android tablet or any other DLNA device. With the Two Player app, I can easily switch between songs, pause and play them again - all of which are great features that you'll appreciate when controlling your music playback remotely.
While this app is specifically designed for audio streaming, there's also a third-party app called IM Media Share, which allows me to stream videos from one device to another. So, this is how you can use DLNA applications to move or stream audio or video from one device to another - it really opens up endless possibilities.
In conclusion, I hope that this video has been helpful in showing you the remote DNA playback capabilities specifically remote controlling one DLNA device from another. Remember to download the Two Player app and explore other third-party apps like IM Media Share for streaming your media content remotely. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in my next video!
