Bluray Player BDP S560 and Streaming

[goharpe48]

I have just connected my BD Player to my Netgear router and PC. I want to stream music from my PC. I can see all the music fileson my PC but only under the PHOTO icon nothing comes up under the MUSIC icon. I have tried various settings but nothing seems to access the mp3 files.Each time I try to open a file I get the message NO PHOTOwhich is not surprising as I am in the PHOTO icon.....but I cannot get into the MUSIC icon!!

Can anyone help with the settings to get music streaming please.  Many tahnks for any help.

it would indicate an issue with the shared folder or the server being used

Thanks...I will have a look at that and see if it solves the problem.

Did you find a solution ? I have exactly the same problem

Unfortunately yes..........the BDP S560 does not stream music...it will only stream photographs from a PC. I went to a Sony centre outlet and this was confirmed. The Sony guys also thought it was strange that it could stream photographs but not music but they knew their specs as soon as I mentioned the issue. Sorry..

I have just installed my S580, hard-wired through a Netgear router and have been able to stream some music from my PC that runs Windows 7 Ultimate - it appears to be something to do with Windows Meduia Player and/or where the files are stored and shared. Still investigating - will update when successful ("IF?)!!!!
