USER MANUAL

Playing/Streaming Videos, Photos, & Music

WD My Cloud Mirror is designed to serve as your home's media server. It enables you to 
stream photos, music, and videos to your DLNA-compatible devices and music to your 
iTunes-compatible devices.

Both DLNA-compatible and iTunes-compatible devices search for media stored in any 
Public share that has media serving enabled. By default, DLNA Media is disabled. Once you 
enable it on the Settings > Media Server page, the media serving for the Public share is also 
automatically enabled. For all other shares, the media serving remains off.

If you do not want DLNA to display specific media files, place them in a private share that is 
set to disable media sharing. (See “Making a Share Private” on page 54.)

Media Server Overview

The WD My Cloud Mirror device uses TwonkyMedia as its DLNA media server. It streams 
your music, photos and videos to compatible devices in your home. Playing media on a 
compatible device is easy.

The media server searches for all the media stored in the Public share on the WD My Cloud 
Mirror device connected to your home network. After enabling media serving for the device 
(see 

“Enabling DLNA and iTunes” on page 98)

, you can just transfer your multimedia content to 

the Public share on your WD My Cloud Mirror device, and you are ready to stream and view 
content on your home entertainment center, game consoles (for example, Xbox 360

®

 or 

PlayStation

®

 3), WD TV Live

®

 media player, or DLNA

®

 1.5 digital media adapters), and other 

PC computers on your home or office network. Visit 

 

for further information on DLNA.

iTunes Overview

You or anyone connected to the WD My Cloud Mirror device can use iTunes to play stored 
music files. iTunes creates a virtual music library on the device and treats it as an iTunes 
repository, making it possible to stream music files from the WD My Cloud Mirror device to 
Windows or Mac computers running iTunes.

iTunes scans any shares that have the Media Serving setting enabled, including the Public 
share by default.
