Videos and photos stored on your LaCie CloudBox are ready for playback on your household televisions.

A television with the option to connect to the internet is called a Smart TV. If your television is on the same network as your LaCie CloudBox, you can stream content stored in the Family folder.

The combination of the LaCie CloudBox and a smart TV is perfect for watching content on a large screen. If your television can connect to the internet via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, make certain that it is on the same router or cable modem as your LaCie CloudBox. To access content, use the TV's remote control to navigate the network and locate the LaCie CloudBox. In most instances, it will recognize the LaCie CloudBox as a media server and playback compatible video and photo files.

Please review your TV's user manual to learn how to:

• Set up the connection to a home network. Please make certain that it is on the same network as your LaCie CloudBox.
• Establish a connection with the LaCie CloudBox. Depending upon your TV, you may have to browse the network for compatible DLNA/UPnP servers in order to find the LaCie CloudBox.
• Playback video and photos stored on the LaCie CloudBox. The TV's remote control should have intuitive buttons to play, pause, stop, fast-forward, and rewind video. Many TVs also include the option to playback photos as a slideshow with music.
• Review the compatible video and photo file types. Many common file types such as AVI and JPG are recognized as playable media. Please make certain that you have copied compatible media files to the Family folder on your LaCie CloudBox.

Even if your TV cannot connect to your home router, media can be streamed using your UPnP/DLNA-compatible set-top box or game console. Any DLNA/UPnP media player can access and stream files stored on the LaCie CloudBox. See the documentation for your set-top box and game console to learn more.

Mobile apps such as Twonky Beam can send web content from a mobile device to your TV. Just like your LaCie CloudBox, Twonky Beam enables devices that are DLNA-certified to playback and stream video. Visit the Twonky Beam website for further information.
