About playable file formats

The NETWORK feature of this receiver supports the following

file formats. Note that some file formats are not available for

playback although they are listed as playable file formats.

Also, the compatibility of file formats varies depending on the

type of server. Check with your server to ensure the

compatibility of file formats supported by your server.

Internet radio playback may be affected by the Internet

communications environment, and in this case playback

may not be possible even with the file formats listed here.

With WAV, FLAC, AIFF and Apple Lossless files, when

music files with the same format, sampling frequency,

quantization bit number and number of channels are

played successively, they are played with no gap.

-

Gapless playback is not possible when the format is

being converted (transcoded) by the server.

-

Gapless playback is not possible in the DMR mode.
