Note: This feature is not available on Meta Quest 2.

Using a DLNA or home streaming server such as Plex enables you to share video, music and pictures from a storage device such as a computer or media player to your Meta Quest, without using additional storage space on your headset. Home streaming servers can be connected to your Meta Quest using Gallery.

To connect a home streaming server:

  1. Turn on your DLNA-supported device and connect it to your local Wi-Fi network.
  2. Enable DLNA on your DLNA-supported device.
    • On Windows, turn on Media Streaming from the Network and Sharing Centre in your Control Panel.
    • On Mac, you'll need to install a third-party media server such as Plex.
  3. Turn on your Meta Quest and put on your headset.
  4. Make sure that your headset is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your DLNA-supported device.
  5. Select the media serverthat you'd like to connect to.
