• Operating Channels 

We recommend using Windows Media Player 9 Series (English 
version). For instructions on installing Windows Media Player 9 
Series, refer to page 52. 

1.  Verify that the desired channel is transmitting to a 

multicast target. 

2.  On the Desktop of the receiving client, click 

 to open 

Windows Media Player, the Windows Media Player screen 
appears. 

3.  From the menu, choose Tools and then Options; the 

Options screen appears. To define the correct port number, 
click the Network tab and set the range of port numbers so 
that your transmitting stream’s port number is included. 

4.  From the menu, select File and then Open, enter the 

location of the NSC file and click OK, the stream starts 
playing. 
• 

If the NSC file resides on the same LAN as Windows 
Media Player, enter the network drive in the Open 
URL field, for example:  
\\PC\shared_folder\File.nsc. 

• 

If the NSC file resides on a web server in a folder 
called wwwroot, enter the URL, for example: 
http://shared_folder/File.nsc. 

• 

To start playing, you may also browse to the NSC 
file's location and drag the relevant NSC file into the 
Windows Media Player window. 

For further information on NSC files, refer to page 88.
