Installing the D-Link® Media Server Software

To share audio, video, and photo files from your computer, it is necessary to install the D-Link® Media Server software on the PC that contains the files you want to share. The D-Link® Media Server software allows you to point to the folders on your PC's hard drive that contain the audio, video, and photo files you want to share. The D-Link® Media Server software then streams the information to your DSM-320RD via your wired/wireless network connection.

Currently the DSM-320RD only connects to one Media Server at a time. If more than one PC contains files you want to share, you can select one of the following options:

1. Copy all of the files to one computer designated to run the D-Link® Media Server Software.
2. Map network drives from the computer with the D-Link® Media Server software to additional computers that contain files you want to share. This method also allows you to share files from computers that cannot run the D-Link® Media Server software such as Macintosh systems. The computer running the D-Link® Media Server software must always be on when streaming content from any computer.
3. Install the D-Link® Media Server software on each computer. You can only connect to one server at a time. To connect to another server, you must go into the setup and change the Default Server.

To install the D-Link® Media Server software, follow the steps on the following pages.

Note: If you have a version of the D-Link® Media Server already installed on your system, please uninstall the software and restart your system before installing a newer version of the software.

Organizing Music Files

Music files are located on your PC and can be contained in one directory folder, or organized in several subfolders.  The DSM-320RD automatically organizes your music files by genres, artists, albums, and tracks. This information is obtained from the ID3 tags in each of your music files. The ID3 tag is created for you when you rip (copy) your music from your CD. However, if your music files have incorrect or incomplete tags, the tracks may not appear where they should in your music categories.

Creating Music Playlists

Use your favorite music software on your PC to create music playlists. A playlist allows you to specify exactly what tracks to play and in what order to play them. For example, create a “favorites” playlist and just listen to your favorite tracks. Save the playlist in the industry standard .m3u playlist format. The DSM-320RD will play tracks from playlists you create on your computer. The media player supports playlists in two standard formats: m3u MPEG Playlist File pls MPEG Playlist File Software for playing music on your PC can be used to create playlists. WinAmp ^TM and Microsoft Windows Media Player ^TM are two examples.

Photo (continued)

Organizing Photo Albums

Unlike music files, photos contain little information about their content. Therefore, photos are organized by their filename and by the folder they are in. Many digital cameras will organize your photos into folders when you connect and unload them to your PC. Each time you dock or connect, a new folder is created using the current date and time, and all photos are copied into that folder. To simplify browsing on your DSM-320RD, you can create folders on your PC. For instance, create a folder in the My Pictures directory called Vacation and copy all of your vacation photos into it. Your DSM-320RD will show the Vacation folder. To play a slideshow of the folder, highlight it and press the PLAY button. To view a list of photos in the folder, highlight it and press the right arrow button. You can give your photos meaningful names by renaming the files on the PC. Most digital cameras number photos sequentially. For example, rename the photo IM001125.jpg to sunset.jpg on your PC. The photo will be displayed as sunset.jpg on your DSM-320RD\*. Right-click on the file and select Rename.  If the file extension does not appear as part of the name displayed when you select rename, then it is not necessary to enter the file extension (.jpg) at the end of the filename. To rename IM001125.jpg to sunset.jpg, type in sunset and hit Enter on your computer's keyboard. 

sunset

If the file extension appears as part of the name when you select rename, then be sure to include the extension when renaming the file. To rename IM001125.jpg to sunset.jpg, type in sunset.jpg and hit Enter on your computer's keyboard. You can create as many folders as you need. Create a folder for the year, then create folders inside for each of the months, and then folders in each month for special occasions (birthday, vacation, holidays, etc...). \*Folder creation and renaming files must be done on the PC via standard Windows procedures.

Photo (continued)

Playing a Photo Slideshow

To start playing a photo slideshow, highlight a folder and press the PLAY button. The first photo will be displayed and then followed by the next photo in the folder. All photos in the folder will be displayed.

Press the PREV and NEXT buttons to skip to the previous or next photo. To set the amount of time before the next photo in a slideshow is displayed, click SETUP on your remote and select General/additional settings. You can set the slide show delay at an interval between 1 second and 2 minutes.

Shuffle and Repeat

Photos are displayed in alphabetical order by filename. During slideshow playback you can shuffle the order by pressing the SHUFFLE button on your remote control. Shuffle automatically enables the repeat function. To repeat all of the photos in a slideshow, press the REPEAT button on the remote control during the slideshow before the end of the slideshow. If the last image in the folder is displayed before you press repeat, then you must go to the previous page and start the slideshow again. Be sure to press the REPEAT button before you see the end of slideshow image in the upper right corner of the screen. Below are the icons you will see in the upper right corner.

Encryption: WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) & WPA (WiFi Protected Access; a wireless standard designed to improve upon the security features of WEP), are two encryption technologies used by wireless devices. The type of encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a longer key than 64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange – alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that is easier to remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four keys can be defined, so that you can change keys easily. WPA-PSK-TKIP requires your router and the DSM-320RD to have the same pre-shared key to establish a wireless connection. There are six options configurable under this setting, Disable, 64bits-Hex, 128bits-Hex, 64bits-ASCII, 28bits-ASCII, and WPA-PSK-TKIP. To toggle between the options, press the ENTER button when Encrypt is highlighted. The up arrow and down arrow will toggle between the six options. Press ENTER again to select. Key Index: Select a number between 1 and 4. To toggle between the options, press the ENTER button when Key Index is highlighted. The up arrow and down arrow will toggle between the four options. Press ENTER again to select. Key: To connect to an encrypted wireless device, the key you enter here must match the key of the device exactly. Press the ENTER button on the remote control with this field highlighted to enter a key. The on-screen keyboard will be displayed and you can enter the key.

Wep Key Types and Examples:

64-bit Hex: Keys are exactly 10 characters in length. Example: 12345678FA is a valid string of 10 characters for 64-bit encryption. 128-bit Hex: Keys are exactly 26 characters in length. Example: 456FBCDF123400122225271730 is a valid string of 26 characters for 128-bit encryption. 64-bit ASCII: Keys are exactly 5 characters in length. Example: DMODE is a valid string of 5 characters for 64-bit encryption. 128-bit ASCII: Keys are exactly 13 characters in length. Example: 2002HALOSWIN1 is a valid string of 13 characters for 128-bit encryption.

Frequently Asked Questions (continued)

If I am running Windows® Media Connect, do I need to run the D-Link® Media Server software? No, you may run both applications but it is not necessary to run both at the same time. What about Copy Protection and DRM support? The most common method of copy protection is WMA DRM (Digital Rights Management). The DSM-320RD can play these types of files if you are using the Windows® Media Connect software. For instructions on configuring Windows® Media Connect, please see page 29. Can I use my Universal remote control? No, the DSM-320RD is not compatible with a universal remote but you can use a remote with learning ability. Can I connect the DSM-320RD directly to a PC without using a router or a hub? ■ Yes, please make note of the following: Wireless Users: Set the Mode to Ad-Hoc in the wireless settings. Wired Users: Connect an Ethernet cable directly from the DSM-320RD's Ethernet port to the Ethernet port on your PC. The DSM-320RD's Ethernet port is Auto MDI/MDI-X, so a special Ethernet cable is not required. All Users: If DHCP software isn't running on your computer, you will need to assign a static IP address to the DSM-320RD. Note: Online Media and firmware upgrades are not available without an Internet connection. How do I change the bit rate of an audio file? There are various conversion programs available for download on the Internet.

Troubleshooting

I cannot see the Setup Wizard when I turn on my DSM-320RD player for the first time. Make sure your TV is displaying the appropriate video source. You may need to use the AV Input, Source, Select, or TV/Video button on your TV or TV remote to change video sources. If you are having trouble changing the video source, refer to the instructions that came with your TV. If you did not connect the player directly to your TV, but are instead passing the signal through your VCR, make sure your VCR is displaying the appropriate video source. You may need to use the Input or Source button on your VCR or VCR's remote control. Some VCRs only pass the signal through when they are turned off. If you are having trouble displaying the correct video source, refer to the instructions that came with your VCR. ■ Make sure cables are connected to the IN jacks on your TV or VCR, not the OUT jacks. The cables you are using to connect your receiver to your TV or other equipment may be damaged or defective. Try exchanging the cables connected to the receiver with other cables that you know are working properly. ■ Make sure you have firmly attached the power adapter plug to the back of the player. Also, verify the power adapter is plugged into a working power outlet and that the outlet is not controlled by a light switch. I've updated the firmware on my DSM-320RD but all of the features do not work. Be sure you've updated to the latest version of the D-Link Media Server software as well. You can download the latest version at http://support.dlink.com

Troubleshooting (continued)

I inserted the a DVD into the DSM-320RD, but there is no on screen display. A possible cause for this problem may be that the disc was inserted upside down or the disc may be dirty, scratched, or cracked. Please make sure the disc is inserted right side up, and the disc is clean, or else replace the disc. The DVD stops playing. The video skips or the sound is abnormal. A possible cause for this problem may be that the disc is not in good condition and has cracks or scratches on its surface. Please try to clean or replace the disc. Another possible cause is that the DSM-320RD is located too close to an amplifier. If this is the case, please move any speakers further away from the DSM-320RD. My remote control isn't working. ■ Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly. - Try removing the batteries and reinserting them without touching any buttons on the remote control. - Replace the batteries with new ones. The volume and mute buttons on the remote control don't work when playing content that was encoded in 5.1 surround. The volume can only be adjusted on your digital stereo receiver.

Troubleshooting (continued)

I can't find any of my music, photos, or video.

Make sure your computer is powered on and that it has not entered standby mode. You may need to change your computer's power settings if you want your content to be available all the time. ■ Make sure the Media Server software is running on your computer. Look for the Media Server icon in your system tray. If necessary, start the Media Server software again. - Click on the Media Server icon and select Show Media Server to verify you are sharing the correct directories. If using a wired network, verify the Ethernet cable is properly attached to your DSM-320RD and to a network switch, hub or router. Verify that the switch, hub or router is powered on. If you are using static IP addresses, verify the IP address and netmask are in the same range as other addresses on your network. Verify that the address is not already in use by another PC or device. ■ Make sure the files you are sharing use a supported file format and encoding scheme.

I can't hear any sound when I'm playing music.

■ Make sure the audio cables are properly connected. If the audio cables are connected to your TV, the TV must be on to hear any music. If the audio cables are connected to your stereo, make sure the stereo is on and you have the correct stereo input source selected. If you are having trouble selecting the correct audio source, refer to the instructions that came with your stereo.

Troubleshooting (continued)

Some of my MP3 and WMA files don't appear.

The DSM-320RD supports the most common music file formats. However, there are almost an infinite variety of bit rates and sample rates. If a file does not appear on the receiver, it most likely uses an unsupported rate. The files may be copy protected. To share your files, turn copy protection off when you rip them (Note: WMA DRM files can be played by using Windows Media Connect Server software, see page 29 for details). The following MP3 sample rates are supported: 4, 8, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz. For best results, rip your MP3 files at 128 kbps or higher, with a sample rate of 44.1 kHz.

I am not able to play certain media files.

The DSM-320RD supports most industry standard file formats but even supported file formats can be encoded in ways that are not supported. Try exporting media with different encoding settings or using different software applications to encode your files.

Troubleshooting (continued)

Checking the bit and sample rates of a music file.

To check the bit and sample rates of a music file: 1. Right-click on the file and select Properties. 2. Select the Summary tab and click the Advanced button. Scroll to the bottom of the list. The file to the right has a bit rate of 128 kbps and a sample rate of 44 kHz. In most cases, the sample rate does not matter unless you come across a file that will not play or appear on your player. Use the above procedure to check the file settings for supported rates. 

I created a playlist on my computer, but it doesn't appear on my media player.

■ Make sure the playlist file is located in a folder shared by your media player. Copy the playlist to your shared music folder or click on the Media Server icon to add or change your folder options.

How do I reset my DSM-320RD?

Under normal circumstances, you should not need to reset your media player. However, to fully reset the media player, lightly insert a paper clip into the reset opening on the unit's rear panel for ten seconds.

What version of firmware do I have?

From the main home screen, press the SETUP button and select Version. The firmware version will be listed.

Troubleshooting (continued)

I am unable to access Rhapsody™ content.

Make sure Rhapsody ^™ is running on a computer connected to the network and check your network connections. Verify that the UPnP Server has been started in Rhapsody ^™ . Within the Rhapsody ^™ application on your computer, go to Options, select User Settings, and go to the UPnP tab. If the Status is stopped, click on the Start button. Be sure to check Start UPnP server once logged in. Make sure you are able to play audio from within the Rhapsody™ application on the computer. If you are unable to play Rhapsody™ content from the computer, check your network and Internet connection. If your Internet connection is ok but you are still unable to play Rhapsody™ content, please contact Rhapsody™ support. To contact Rhapsody™ support, go to http://www.listen.com/dlink and click on Contact Us at the bottom of the page.

I am unable to access Napster™ content.

Make sure you have Windows ^® Media Connect running and that you are sharing the folder that contains the Napster ^TM audio files. Make sure you have validated the D-Link ^® player from within Windows ^® Media Connect.

I was able to browse and play content from my media player, but now I can no longer browse or play any content from my media server.

This is a problem we have noticed with Norton Anti-Virus 2005. Your media player caches the available media server for 30 minutes. During this time, if the connection between your PC media server and the media player was disconnected, you will need to restart your PC to solve this issue.

Troubleshooting (continued)

When sharing files with the D-Link Media Server, my PC is very slow. If you are sharing gigabytes of content, especially videos, please make sure that you are not running any other software that requires high CPU usage. It takes a long time to share files with the D-Link Media Server. If you are sharing gigabytes of content with your media server software, it may take several minutes depending on the size of the content you are sharing. The DSM-320RD will not play my AVI files. ■ Make sure that your AVI files are smaller than 2GB. AVI files have a limitation of 2GB. This is a limitation set in the AVI standard.

Wireless Installation Considerations

The D-Link ^® DSM-320RD can be integrated into a wireless network from virtually anywhere within its operating range. However, the range can be limited by the number of walls, thickness of walls, and location of the walls that the wireless signal must pass through. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines: - Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DSM-320RD and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall or ceiling can reduce your DSM-320RD's range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters). Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception. ■ Building materials can impede the wireless signal. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on the range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials. - Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise. You can also add a directional antenna to help with range and sensitivity issues.

Glossary

Networking

802.11b: A wireless networking standard that supports data encryption and up to 11Mbps bandwidth. 802.11g: A wireless networking standard that supports data encryption and up to 54Mbps bandwidth. Ad-Hoc: This wireless networking mode means that two PC's are communicating in a Peer-to-Peer network, without a router or an access point. Bandwidth: A measure of the rate at which data can be sent and received through the network. This value is usually given in bits per second (bps) or Megabits per second (Mbps). DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol): A protocol that network devices use to obtain an IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS addresses automatically. A DHCP server can be a router, ISP server, or PC running Internet Connection Sharing software. If you are using a DHCP-capable device in your network, you will not need to assign a static IP address to your DSM-320RD. However, if you do not have a DHCP-capable device in your network, you will need to assign a static IP address to your DSM-320RD. DNS (Domain Name System): A system used to translate computer names into IP addresses. For example, a DNS server would translate www.dlink.com into 64.7.210.132 Ethernet: The most commonly used wired network technology. Standard Ethernet supports up to 10Mbps. Fast Ethernet supports up to 100Mbps. Gateway: This is the IP address of the device that connects you to another network such as a router. A router would be the gateway between your local area network and the Internet. Infrastructure: This wireless networking mode is used by wireless networks with a router or an access point.

Glossary (continued)

IP Address (Internet Protocol Address): An IP address consists of four groups of digits separated by periods. Each group of digits contain an 8-bit value as a number ranging from 0 to 255. Each computer must have it's own unique IP address. The IP addresses on your network must be within the same range. For example, if one PC or device has an IP address of 192.168.0.2, the other devices should have IP addresses that are sequential, like 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.4. ISP (Internet Service Provider): A commercial organization that provides subscribers with access to the Internet. Key: Encryption keys allow you to easily change wireless encryption settings to maintain a secure network. The DSM-320RD supports 64-bit and 128-bit keys. Netmask: Commonly referred to as subnet mask, this is used to determine what subnet an IP address belongs to. RJ-45: RJ-45 is the standard connector for Ethernet cabling. It looks like a phone cable connector, but is slightly larger. RJ-45 connectors have 8 pins, 4 of which are used for transmitting and receiving data. SSID (Service Set Identifier): The name designated for a specific wireless local area network (WLAN). The SSID can be easily changed to connect to an existing wireless network. Static IP: A static IP address is configured manually on the device that will be using it. A static IP address remains the same constantly and must be a unique address. WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy): A security protocol for wireless local area networks (WLAN) that is designed to provide the same level of security as a wired network. WEP provides security by encrypting the data sent over the WLAN. The DSM-320RD supports 64-bit and 128-bit encryption. Wired: Devices networked via Ethernet cabling. Wireless: Devices networked using radio frequencies instead of physical cabling. WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access with Pre-Shared Key): A security protocol for wireless local area networks that requires that the router and DSM-320RD have the same pre-shared key in order to establish a wireless connection.

Music

AIFF is short for Audio Interchange File Format, an audio format that was developed by Apple Computer and is the standard audio format for Macintosh computers. AIFF use a .AIF or .IEF extension. M3U is a playlist format and is the default playlist format of WinAMP and most other media player software. It allows multiple files to be queued in a program in a specific format. MP3 is the file extension for MPEG-1, audio layer 3. Layer 3 is one of three coding schemes (layer 1, layer 2 and layer 3) for the compression of audio signals. Layer 3 removes the redundant and irrelevant parts of a sound signal, which the human ear does not hear. It uses Modified Discrete Cosine Transform to implement a filter bank, increasing the frequency resolution 18 times higher than that of layer 2. OGG or OGG Vorbis is an open source audio compression format. The name OGG is derived from term in a network game and Vorbis from a character in a novel. OGG is used for mid to high quality (8kHz-48.0kHz, 16+ bit, polyphonic) audio and music at fixed and variable bitrates from 16 to 128 kbps/channel. PLS is a proprietary playlist format used for playing Shoutcast and other audio streams. WAV is the file extension for PC sound files and was developed by Microsoft and IBM. WAV sound files end with a .wav extension and are compatible with Windows applications supporting audio. WMA is short for Windows Media Audio and is an audio format that was created by Microsoft. It is similar to MP3, although WMA can compress at a higher rate than MP3.

Photo

BMP: The standard bit-mapped graphics format used in the Windows environment. By convention, graphics files in the BMP format end with a .BMP extension. GIF: Pronounced jiff or giff and stands for graphics interchange format, it is a bit-mapped graphics file format. GIF supports color and various resolutions. It uses data compression, but it is limited to a 256-color palette. JPG: Short for Joint Photographic Experts Group, and pronounced jay-peg. JPEG is a lossy compression technique for color images. Although it can reduce files sizes to about 5% of their normal size, some detail is lost in the compression. JP2: JP2 is the file extension for the new image format called JPEG2000 based on the latest image compression technology. PNG: Short for Portable Network Graphics, is a bit-mapped graphics format similar to GIF. In fact, PNG was approved as a standard by the World Wide Web consortium to replace GIF because GIF uses a patented data compression scheme. In contrast, PNG is patent and license-free. TIFF: Acronym for Tagged Image File Format, and is one of the most widely supported file formats for storing bit-mapped images on personal computers. TIFF graphics can be any resolution, and they can be black and white, gray-scaled, or color. Files in TIFF format often end with a .tif extension.

Video

AVI: Short for Audio Video Interleave, the file format for Microsoft's Video for Windows standard. See under Video for Windows. DivX: Is a video format that is MPEG-4 compliant and widely used on the Internet for encoding video files. MPEG: Short for Moving Picture Experts Group, and pronounced “empeg”. MPEG generally produces better-quality video than competing formats. MPEG achieves high compression rate by storing only the changes from one frame to another, instead of each entire frame. MPEG uses a type of lossy compression, since some data is removed. However, the reduction in the resulting video quality is minimal. There are three major MPEG standards: MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. - The most common implementations of the MPEG-1 standard provide a video resolution of 352-by-240 at 30 frames per second (fps). MPEG-1 is used with Video CDs (VCD) and results in video quality slightly below the quality of a VCR video. - MPEG-2 offers higher resolution with CD-quality audio. This is sufficient for all major TV standards, including NTSC, and even HDTV. MPEG-2 is used by DVDs. MPEG-2 compresses a 2 hour video into a few gigabytes of data on a single disc. - MPEG-4 is a video compression standard based on MPEG-1 and MPEG-2. Videos encoded with MPEG-4 technology are considerably smaller than videos encoded with MPEG-1 or 2. MPEG-4 was standardized in October 1998. QuickTime: An audio and video compression technology developed by Apple Computer and is widely supported on Macintosh and Windows PC computers. The latest QuickTime implementation is MPEG-4 compliant. XviD: XviD is an ISO MPEG-4 compliant video codec. It's an open source project which is developed and maintained by many people from all over the world.
