Multi-zone control and streaming
Music Station works with your NAS Audio output (USB speaker, Soundcard, HDMI),
Bluetooth, and Network Media Players (DLNA, Chromecast, AirPlay) making it easy to
stream music to many types of devices. It can stream different music to all the
supported devices in your home, or the same music in sync at the same time. You can
change the output device by using the "streaming mode" button (ear piece icon) on the
player panel, and then by double clicking a song to start playing it on that device. You
can add more songs to the Now Playing list to play your desired songs on that device.
Note :
To stream media files to HDMI or Chromecast, the Multimedia Extension Pack
must first be installed in the App Center.
Please check the QNAP website for supported USB speakers.
Some models with 3.5mm audio output may not support USB audio output.
Radio stations only support playing under streaming mode and Bluetooth.
