Thank you, I noticed several mentions of "DLNA" in the manual. Since it's getting late, I'll look into it more tomorrow.

Thank you, I reviewed pages 100-104. A few details didn't align perfectly, and I'm uncertain whether choosing a folder for sharing was successful since it was unchecked when I revisited. Now I've made some progress. It mentions playing from the NAS, but that doesn't seem accurate. I believe I should reach out to Cambridge Audio again.

Are you attempting to use MP3 or MP4? An MP3 is merely a file format type. The real compression process might prevent compatibility.
For instance, the Cambridge Audio MX10 states it supports ALAC, WAV, FLAC, AIFF, DSD (x512), WMA, MP3, AAC, HE AAC, AAC+, OGG Vorbis audio files.
I would verify that a file plays on a thumb drive connected to the USB port. If you try to play it over a network and it fails, you can be sure it’s not a format problem.

According to the manual, you need to begin from Chapter 7. Multimedia Page.76. The link provided is https://www.bhphotovideo.com/lit_files/640730.pdf. Steps include enabling DLNA server, enabling DLNA for each folder you wish to share as media files, and allowing a client device's MAC address permission (such as your Cambridge Audio player's MAC address).
