is necessary to set up the network manually. Otherwise,
you cannot play back audio files stored on components
on the network or listen to Internet radio stations. See
Setting up the network
on page 10 for more on this.

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 Home Media Gallery features due to
communication error/malfunctions associated with your

Listening to Internet radio stations
About Internet radio
Internet radio is an audio broadcasting service
transmitted via the Internet. There are a large number of
Internet radio stations broadcasting a variety of services
from every corner of the world. Some are hosted,
managed, and broadcast by private individuals while
others are by the corresponding traditional terrestrial
radio stations or radio networks. Whereas terrestrial, or
OTA (over-the-air), radio stations are geographically
restricted on the range of radio waves broadcast from a
transmitter through the air, Internet radio stations are
accessible from anywhere in the world, as long as there
is a connection to the Internet, as services are not
transmitted through the air but are delivered over the
World Wide Web. On this receiver you can select Internet
radio stations by genre as well as by region.
About the playback screen
The following screen appears when audio streams from
an Internet radio station are received. (The screen below
is just one example. The actual display depends on the
radio station.)
