Enjoying the Home Media
Gallery

This unit’s Home Media Gallery function allows

you to listen to audio files or listen to Internet

radio stations on a computer or other

component connected to this unit’s LAN

terminal. This chapter describes the

connection, setup, and playback procedures

required to enjoy these features. It is advisory

that you also refer to the operation manual

supplied with your network component.

Important

• The Home Media Gallery allows you to play

music on media servers connected on an

identical Local Area Network (LAN) as the

receiver. This unit allows for the playing of

files stored on the following:
- PCs running Microsoft Windows Vista

or XP with Windows Media Player 11

installed

- PCs running Microsoft Windows 7 with

Windows Media Player 12 installed

- DLNA-compatible digital media servers

(on PCs or other components)

- Files stored in a PC or DMS (Digital

Media Server) as described above can

be played via command from an external

Digital Media Controller (DMC). The

device used to play files under the

control of the DMC is called a Digital

Media Renderer (DMR*). The XW-NAC3

unit supports the use of such DMR

components. When selecting a DMC or

DMS, use only those that have received

DLNA certification.
*: DMR is a device class certified by

DLNA.

- During use of a DMR, an external

controller can be used to start and stop

playback of files. Control of sound

volume and the MUTE function are also
possible.

1

- When a DMR is in use, if the XW-NAC3’s

remote control is operated, DMR

operation will be canceled (this excludes

the use of certain buttons including

VOLUME, MUTE, and DISPLAY).

• To play back audio files stored on

components on the network or listen to

Internet radio stations, you must turn on

the DHCP server function of your router.

In case your router does not have the built-

in DHCP server function, it 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 page 27.

Note

1 Depending on the external controller used, playback may be interrupted when the controller is used to adjust the sound

volume. In this event, perform sound volume adjustments from the main unit or the remote control unit.
