About playback behavior over a network
!
Playback may stall when the PC is switched off or any media files stored on it are deleted while playing content.
!
If there are problems within the network environment (heavy network traffic, etc.) content may not be displayed
or played properly (playback may be interrupted or stalled). For best performance, a 100BASE-TX connection
between player and PC is recommended.
!
If several clients are playing simultaneously, as the case may be, playback is interrupted or stalled.
!
Depending on the security software installed on a connected PC and the setting of such software, network
connection may be blocked.
Pioneer is not responsible for any malfunction of the player and/or the NETWORK features due to communica-
tion error/malfunctions associated with your network connection and/or your PC, or other connected equipment.
Please contact your PC manufacturer or Internet service provider.
