<span style="font-size: large;">This feature is also known as “<b>Play To</b>” or <b>UPnP AV</b>. Using it is easier than you might think, as the server software you’ll need is built into Windows. if you want to play media files from your computer on a DLNA-enabled set-top box, it’s useful.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">There are many different pieces of software that can function as DLNA servers. But you don’t need to install anything special to get started. Windows has an integrated DLNA server you can enable. To activate it, open the Control Panel and search for “media.” Click the “Media streaming options” link.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Click the “Turn on media streaming” button to enable the media-streaming server. Although this Control Panel doesn’t mention the term “DLNA” at all, the media-streaming feature in Windows is a DLNA-compliant media server.</span></div>

<i><span style="font-size: large;">You can now customize the streaming settings. This window doesn’t actually tell you how to add video, music, and picture files that can be streamed over the network. However, the media-streaming feature depends on your Windows libraries.</span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-size: large;">If you want to stream video, music, or picture files, add them to the Videos, Music, or Pictures libraries. You don’t have to move the files to the current library folders — you can add new folders to the libraries. On Windows 8.1, you’ll need to unhide the libraries to access them.</span></i></div><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<span style="font-size: large;">Many different media servers support DLNA, including the immensely popular Plex software. Plex supports DLNA as well, so you can install the Plex media server on your computer and use DLNA on another device to access your media, if you want. Plex’s own interface is more featureful, but your Plex library can also be accessed via DLNA.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You might also be interested in the completely free PS3 Media Server. It began as a project designed to stream media from your computer to a PlayStation 3 via DLNA, but it’s expanded to support other devices.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The nice thing about Plex, PS3 Media Server, and other third-party DLNA-compliant servers is that they support Mac OS X and Linux as well as Windows. Macs and Linux PCs don’t have this feature built-in, so a third-party media server like these are ideal.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">DLNA seems to be on its way out. Sony doesn’t support it on their own PlayStation 4, for example — even though Sony basically created DLNA more than a decade ago. DLNA is fundamentally focused on playing back media files you have downloaded on your PC (video files, music files, and image files) on other devices. Modern solutions are usually focused on streaming media from the cloud. And, even if you want to manage your own local media library, a solution like Plex is more full-featured and better.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This standard’s strength is still its wide ecosystem of supported devices. Even though it’s not an ideal solution, it provides the glue to link a wide variety of devices together without any third-party apps. Devices that don’t have web browsers or apps you can use to access Plex may support DLNA.</span><br />
