How do I use the UPnP/DLNA feature?
User Advice: UPnP/DLNA feature erformance is de endent on the s eed and signal quality
of the Wi-Fi network. High bitrate 1080 or 4K videos may not stream/cast smoothly. Please
ensure that the ATOM CAST has a strong Wi-Fi signal for the best ex erience.
The ATOM CAST has a built-in UPnP Renderer that can be used to play videos, photos, and music
from a UPnP server that is on the same local networ . This is useful for users who have a
centralized library of media files that they would li e to play on TVs in different parts of the house.
Setting up and configuration of a UPnP server is beyond the scope of this user manual, although
there are numerous tutorials on the Internet on how to do this with free software tools.
The UPnP Renderer name for the ATOM CAST is “MediaCenter” followed by a string of unique
numbers. It will be automatically listed on the UPnP casting device as an available renderer, such
as shown in the screenshots below from an example Android phone and Windows 10 computer:
When the UPnP cast video is playing, a limited number of video playbac controls are available
using the ATOM CAST remote control. Playbac can also be controlled using the UPnP casting
device.

I Now Have Additional Questions...
Here are some common questions and answers. If you have additional questions, please email
[e-mail] for additional help!
Video does not play or plays with problems
The media player supports video, music, and photo files that meet the following requirements:
Video File Support
•Container files: MKV, MP4, MOV, VOB, AVI, TS, M2TS, WMV
•MPEG1, MPEG2, MPEG4/ASP, VP8 – maximum 1920x1080@60fps, 50mbps

Music File Support
•Formats: MP3, FLAC, OGG, APE, AAC
•Bitrate: 32 bps to 320 bps
Photo File Support
•Formats: JPG, PNG, GIF (non-animated), BMP
The most common cause for videos not playing is an unsupported video codec or a resolution that
is higher than the maximum supported. You can use the free MediaInfo tool at
htt s://mediaarea.net/MediaInfoOnline to chec if your video satisfies these requirements.
Videos that do not play can be recoded using free software to be compatible. Please email our
support team at SUPPO[email protected] if you need help doing the conversion.
The USB drive or Micro SD card cannot be read
For USB drives and Micro SD cards, chec that the drive is using FAT32, exFAT, or NTFS file

onto the drive.
The media player does not support Micro SD cards or USB drives that other file systems such as
HFS+, or EXT3/4. Please email [e-mail] if you need help troubleshooting

Photos are displayed sideways or upside down
The media player is designed to display photos as-is without ma ing any changes to them. This
ensures that your photos are never accidentally damaged or overwritten. The rotation function
provided by the media player only changes how the current photo is shown on screen – the
rotation change is not saved to the photo file. Therefore, the next time the photo is shown, it is
again displayed without any rotation applied.
Please visit WWW.NEUMITECH.COM for tutorials on how to fix image rotation issues using free
software. Please email [e-mail] if you need further help in this regard.
Photos have blac bars on the sides or above/below
The media player shows all photos without cropping any portion of the photo. For photos that do
not exactly match the display ratio of the TV screen, there will be blac bars added to the sides or
above/below the photo. This is normal behavior and your computer/phone wor the same way. To
eliminate blac bars, ma e sure your photos are a perfect match for the resolution of the TV
screen, such as 1920x1080.
The player does not respond to remote control
To see if the remote is wor ing, please use the cell phone tric where you loo at the remote's
signal emitter through your cell phone's camera. If you have an iPhone, use it in selfie mode with
the front camera since the main camera has an IR filter. If the remote is wor ing, you'll see the
emitter light up through your phone's camera. This helps determine if the remote is bad. Please
email [e-mail] if you need additional assistance.
