The display switches between track title, artist name, and album title each time the main unit’s STATUS is pressed.

When a WMA (Windows Media Audio), MP3 or MPEG-4 AAC file includes album art data, the album art can be displayed while the music files are playing.

If you use Ver.11 or later of Windows Media Player, the album art for WMA files can be displayed.

WMA Lossless files can be played when using a server supporting transcoding, such as Windows Media Player (Ver.11 or later).

This unit plays back picture (JPEG) files in the order in which they are stored in the folder.

NOTE

When playing back music files with your PC or NAS connected through wireless LAN, audio may be interrupted depending on your wireless LAN environment. In this case, connect using a wired LAN.

Depending on the size of the still picture (JPEG) file, some time may be required for the file to be displayed.

The order in which the tracks/files are displayed depends on the server specifications. If the tracks/files are not displayed in alphabetical order due to the server specifications, searching by the first letter may not work properly.
