The device supports UPnP and is DLNA-compatible.
This provides the opportunity to stream music from your network. However, this requires you
to have a compatible device in your network that can function as a server. This can be e.g., a
network hard drive or a conventional PC with e.g., Windows 8 via which access to the shared
folder or media sharing is permitted. The folders can then be browsed and played on the Tuner.
Note - Please make sure your computer laptop is on the same Wi-Fi network as the Radio
before you start using this function.
