FAQ
macOS doesn't include built-in DLNA streaming, so you can't stream media directly to a DLNA TV without additional software. Elmedia Player solves this by acting as a DLNA Media Controller, allowing you to stream local videos, music, and other media from your Mac to a DLNA Smart TV or other DLNA-compatible devices over Wi-Fi.
Getting started takes only a few steps:
- Install Elmedia Player on your Mac.
- Make sure your Mac and your DLNA-supported TV are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
- Open Elmedia Player on your Mac.
- Open the video you want to stream from your Mac.
- Find and click the “Stream to” icon located in Elmedia’s bottom bar.
- From that menu, choose your DLNA device from the list.
Most Smart TVs from brands like Samsung, LG, Sony, Panasonic, Philips, and many others include DLNA support. Check your TV's specifications, user manual, or network settings for terms such as DLNA, DLNA Certified, or Digital Living Network Alliance. If your television supports DLNA and is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Mac, Elmedia Player should automatically detect it and make it available for streaming.
