The Digital Living Network Alliance is an international,
cross-industry collaboration. Members of DLNA
develop a concept of wired and wireless interoperable
networks where digital content such as photos,
music, and videos can be shared through consumer
electronics, personal computers, and mobile devices
in and beyond the home. The AV receiver complies
with the DLNA Interoperability Guidelines version 1.5.
Supported Audio File Formats
The AV receiver does not support playback of video
