Home Media Gallery is not available.
•LAN indicator is unlit:
– Check the physical connections (hub, 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T or crossed cable and other cable
quality when cabled directly to a PC).
– If the player is connected to a network via a hub, make sure that the Ethernet (CAT-5 LAN) cable
you’re using is a ‘standard’ or ‘straight through’ type.
– If the player is connected directly to a PC, make sure that the Ethernet (CAT-5 LAN) cable you’re
using is a ‘crossed’ or ‘crossover’ type.
•LAN indicator is lit:
– If this player’s IP address is set automatically, make sure that the media server’s address is also set
automatically. If the IP address of the media server has been set manually, set the IP address of the
player manually too (see Network settings page 42).
– Check the logical connections (IP address setup, DHCP, etc.). Confirm that the IP address is correct
if acquired using DHCP or Auto-IP in the Network Config. screen that follows the Initial Setup menu
(see Network settings page 42).
– Confirm that the media server is on and not in standby or sleep mode.
– Check the network and other settings on the media server.
– Check that this player and the media server are on the same Local Area Network (LAN).
– Check if the media server (Windows Media Connect or DLNA-compliant) is running. Restart if
necessary.
– Check if the media server is setup correctly for file sharing, if the target folder has been deleted or if
one or more folders has become corrupted on the server.
– Check if the PC is operating properly. Reboot the PC after confirming its specifications and setup.

the player will connect to another server on the network. To see content on a particular server, make
sure it is running and then select it as the source in the Home Media Gallery (see Movie sources on
page 34).
