Audio codecs

Your radio supports a range of audio codecs which provide compatibility
with a wide range of Internet Radio stations. These also allow users to
stream music from their computers or to play directly from USB and
SD/SDHC fl ash memory devices. Note that for any given audio codec,
there are many streaming protocols available, and thus even if an Internet
Radio station uses a supported format, this does not guarantee that every
such station will work with your radio. The radio stations database to which
your radio connects is checked for compatibility so that most stations should
be playable without problems. Similarly when streaming media from a
computer, while a codec may be supported, there can be many subtle
variations in formats, tagging schemes and protocols (even within UPnP).
In general your radio will play the supported formats with most common
UPnP servers.
