To play an item on a network
Use the Open URL command to play a song or video that is stored on
the Internet or on a network server.
1. If you are not on the Playback screen, tap OK to close the current
screen and display the Playback screen.
2. Tap Menu > Open URL.
3. Do one of the following:
• In the URL box, enter a network address.
• In the History box, tap a URL that you have previously used.
Note To play an item on a network, you must be connected to a network. For
more information about creating a remote connection between your
device and a network, see Connections Help on your device.
Copy files to your device
Use the latest version of the desktop Player (Windows Media Player
10 or later) to synchronize digital media files to your device (instead of
dragging a file from a folder on your PC to a folder on your device, for
example). Using the desktop Player ensures that licenses are copied
with protected files.
When synchronizing files, always synchronize the files to a storage
card that is inserted into your device. Do not synchronize to a storage
card that is inserted into a storage card reader. In addition, do not
synchronize to the internal storage location (RAM) in your device.
For more information about synchronizing files to mobile devices, see
desktop Player Help on the PC.
Note Audio files copy faster if the desktop Player is configured to
automatically set the quality level for audio files copied to your device.
For more information, see desktop Player Help on the PC.
