Playing Music in Other
Rooms
When connected to a DLNA compatible audio device or PC via
the network, you can play music stored on the HDD on these
devices.
About the DLNA function
The function ensures connection and music sharing among
digital AV devices and PCs on the home network. When the
server and the DLNA compatible devices are connected via the
network, the device can play the server’s music content.
Because of this convenient function, you can play the server’s
music even in other rooms.
