Playing back a file saved on a PC or NAS

This unit is compatible with MP3 ID3-Tag (Ver. 2) standard.

This unit can show the artwork that was embedded by using MP3 ID3-Tag Ver. 2.3 or 2.4.

This unit is compatible with WMA META tags.

If the image size (pixels) of an album artwork exceeds 500 × 500 (WMA/MP3/WAV/FLAC/Apple Lossless/DSD) or 349 × 349 (MPEG-4 AAC), then music may not be played back properly.

A server or server software compatible with distribution in the corresponding formats is required to play music files via a network.

For playing mentioned audio formats via a network a server software, for example Twonky Media Server or jRiver Media Server, needs to be installed on your computer or NAS for full support. There are other server software available too. Please check supported formats.
