Version2,June1991
Copyright(C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed
Preamble
Thelicensesformostsoftwarearedesignedtotakeawayyourfreedomtoshareandchangeit.Bycon-
trast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
software--tomakesurethesoftwareisfreeforallitsusers.ThisGeneralPublicLicenseappliestomost
of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to using
it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change
the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
Toprotectyourrights,weneedtomakerestrictionsthatforbidanyonetodenyyoutheserightsorto
askyoutosurrendertherights.Theserestrictionstranslatetocertainresponsibilitiesforyouifyoudis-
tribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the
recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
28
29
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which
gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that
thereisnowarrantyforthisfreesoftware.Ifthesoftwareismodiedbysomeoneelseandpassedon,
we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced
byotherswillnotreectontheoriginalauthors'reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that
redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program
proprietary.Topreventthis,wehavemadeitclearthatanypatentmustbelicensedforeveryone'sfree
use or not licensed at all.
Theprecisetermsandconditionsforcopying,distributionandmodicationfollow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0.ThisLicenseappliestoanyprogramorotherworkwhichcontainsanoticeplacedbythecopyright
holdersayingitmaybedistributedunderthetermsofthisGeneralPublicLicense.The"Program",below,
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or
any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
eitherverbatimorwithmodicationsand/ortranslatedintoanotherlanguage.(Hereinafter,translationis
includedwithoutlimitationintheterm"modication".)Eachlicenseeisaddressedas"you".
Activitiesotherthancopying,distributionandmodicationarenotcoveredbythisLicense;theyare
outsideitsscope.TheactofrunningtheProgramisnotrestricted,andtheoutputfromtheProgramis
covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made
by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any
medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copy-
right notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the
absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with
the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer war-
ranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based
ontheProgram,andcopyanddistributesuchmodicationsorworkunderthetermsofSection1above,
provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a)Youmustcausethemodiedlestocarryprominentnoticesstatingthatyouchangedthelesand
the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived
from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under
the terms of this License.
c)Ifthemodiedprogramnormallyreadscommandsinteractivelywhenrun,youmustcauseit,when
started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement
including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that
you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling
the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does
not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an
announcement.)
Theserequirementsapplytothemodiedworkasawhole.Ifidentiablesectionsofthatworkare
not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on
the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for
other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus,itisnottheintentofthissectiontoclaimrightsorcontestyourrightstoworkwrittenentirelyby
you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works
based on the Program.
28
29
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a
work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other
work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or
executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the follow-
ing:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distri-
buted under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchan-
ge; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge
no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy
of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a me-
dium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source
code.(Thisalternativeisallowedonlyfornoncommercialdistributionandonlyifyoureceivedthepro-
gram in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
Thesourcecodeforaworkmeansthepreferredformoftheworkformakingmodicationstoit.Foran
executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
associatedinterfacedenitionles,plusthescriptsusedtocontrolcompilationandinstallationofthe
executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that
is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel,
and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompa-
nies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place,
then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the
source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under
this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or
rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain
in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants
youpermissiontomodifyordistributetheProgramoritsderivativeworks.Theseactionsareprohibited
bylawifyoudonotacceptthisLicense.Therefore,bymodifyingordistributingtheProgram(orany
work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and
conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automa-
tically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of
the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this Licen-
se.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason
(not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of
this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License
and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all.
For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those
who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this
License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the
balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other cir-
cumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims
or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of
the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people
have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reli-
ance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

Thissectionisintendedtomakethoroughlyclearwhatisbelievedtobeaconsequenceoftherestofthis
License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by
copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add
an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted
only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.
9.TheFreeSoftwareFoundationmaypublishrevisedand/ornewversionsoftheGeneralPublicLicense
from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
detail to address new problems or concerns.
Eachversionisgivenadistinguishingversionnumber.IftheProgramspeciesaversionnumberof
this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the
Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published
by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution condi-
tions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the
Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for
this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our
free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

One Device - Multiple Options
Enjoy data from up to two external drives via USB
No need to connect the M520 to any other device than your Home Entertainment System. So you are
able to use your M520 as a Media Player only by connecting up to two external HDDs or one internal
HDD (not included), but this device can do much more.
Stream data directly from your PC
You can access multimedia content from your Computer directly by using a cross cable without using
a Hub or Switch.
Stream data directly from each PC or NAS in your local network by using SAMBA protocol;
wired or wireless (USB WiFi dongle not included)
You can access multimedia content from other Computers in your local network. So with just one Net-
work Multimediaplayer you can access content on several PCs, and there's no need to copy files across.
Stream data from NAS or PC in your local network by using UPnP AV (Universal Plug and Play AV)
