tuner and UPnP

few seconds for the tuner to complete its scan and before the scan has completed, the
tuner will display ‘[Empty]’. The tuner will continue to display ‘[Empty]’ if no UPnP servers
are found.
5. After a successful scan, select your UPnP server, by rotating the Dial if there is more than
one UPnP server, and then press SELECT.

‘Playlists’ etc. Turn the Dial to select which category you wish to browse, press SELECT
and turn the Dial to highlight a sub category and press SELECT again. For example, you
could select ‘Music’ and then ‘Album’.

its queue and begin playing them automatically.
