Using the PARTY
STREAMING function
Audio contents currently being played back on
this receiver can be also played back on all
devices corresponding to the PARTY
STREAMING function on your home network
at the same time.
If you encounter an interruption when using a
wireless connection, connect your receiver to
the router with a wired connection.
While PARTY streaming, a device called a
“PARTY host” starts a PARTY and streams
music, and a device called a “PARTY guest”
joins a PARTY and receives music from the
“PARTY host”.
Before using the PARTY STREAMING
function, make sure that “PARTY
STREAMING” is set to “On” (page 99).
You can enjoy the PARTY STREAMING
function with other devices* that have this
PARTY STREAMING logo shown below.
* Available PARTY STREAMING-compliant
devices may differ depending on the countries or
regions. For details on available devices, contact
your nearest Sony dealers.
You can start a PARTY so that other devices
that support the PARTY STREAMING
function can play the same music even though
they are in different rooms.
