* DLNA is a standard which enables media content exchange between compatible devices via home network as well as image, music and video display in real time mode. With 8player you can use your iPhone/iPad/iPod touch as a part of digital home. DLNA is a technology used by millions of people. Join in!

You don’t need any additional software or configuration. 8player works with the media server you already have and automatically recognizes devices in your network with no need of manual configuration or settings. Just turn it on and watch video, listen to the music or view images in the network. If you don’t have DLNA/UPnP servers, you can use an embedded Windows 7 server (built in Windows Media Player), or download any other free server.
