Working with NAS Drives, PCs, and OSX Devices
The Definitive App is capable of recognizing any Media Server or NAS Drive 
that is broadcasting over your home network and that’s configured for open 
access using the DLNA protocol. 
Using the DTS Play-Fi Windows app, the Definitive Wireless Collection 
products will play any file capable of being played by the Windows 
operating system, including all music services. See “Downloading the DTS 
Play-Fi App” above to learn more.
Because OSX devices don’t support DLNA, a third party software 
(ex. Twonky, Plex or Servio) must be downloaded for them to be visible 
to the network. Once downloaded, all locally stored content on OSX-based 
devices will show up within the Definitive Technology app under 
“Media Server.”
Playing Music
Now that you’re connected, open the Definitive Technology app to begin 
playing music. Start by selecting the preferred music source. The next step is 
to select the device(s) from which you want to hear the music. When done, 
click “Next.” You can now select the music you want to play. 
Music Choices to Select from Include:
Your Personal Music Library—hear all the music on your phone, 
tablet or computer for the first time in high quality audio and 
through your Definitive speakers. It never sounded better. 
Internet Radio—Enjoy radio stations from around the world, in 
virtually any genre, and all of it free. Internet Radio has 37,000 
stations with popular brands like Disney, BBC, NPR, Fox News 
Radio, Wall Street Journal Radio and more.
