iPod

(optional MDX 1 dock required):

To set up iPod connection use on-screen display. First, use input selection on front panel or remote to select
iPod input. If using the front panel input selection, the button may have to be pressed more than once to cycle
through Internet Radio, USB, and iPod.

Once iPod input is selected, use navigation keys to select iPod settings. Here you can select audio and video
connection types between the iPod and the MDX 1. For audio connection, select Digital if using your iPod or
iPhone exclusively for music playback (digital option is not available on MRX 300). This provides the purest
sound,  bypassing  the  analog  section  in  the  iPod/iPhone.  Select  Analog  if  you  will  be  playing  video  (this
prevents lip-sync issues) or if you will be sending audio to Zone 2.

For video, select S-Video if iPod video player is an older model that does not support Component video.

vTuner Internet Radio 

(not available on MRX 300)

:    

vTuner finds a very large number of internet broadcasts and organizes the stations. 

Initial  setup:  Connect  receiver  to  Internet-enabled  Ethernet  and  select  Internet  Radio  through  the  MEDIA
input selector (it may need to be pressed 2-3 times as it cycles through Internet Radio, iPod, and USB). If a
firewall  is  preventing  the  receiver  from  connecting  to  the  Internet,  change  settings  in  the  firewall  so  the
receiver’s MAC address is allowed. The MAC address is displayed on-screen in the network settings.

Optional online setup: You may find it easier to organize favorites through your computer. To do so, select
Internet Radio, through the MEDIA input selector then press Select. Once you do this the on-screen display
will display “Get access code”. Use this 8-digit code to register on http://anthem.vtuner.com (no “www”).
Your  computer  screen  will  display  the  same  info  that  the  receiver’s  on-screen  display  does,  but  more  is
shown at once making it easier to browse and select favorites, and stream type and bit rate are also shown.
After  registering  you  can  select  favorite  stations  and  create  groups  to  add  your  favorites  to.  These  will
instantly appear in the receiver’s on-screen display.
