The speaker can play MP3, Linear PCM, WMA, AAC, WAV, FLAC, ALAC and AIFF format files (only AAC files with the extension ".m4a," ".mp4,"
or ".3gp" are playable). Even if the bit rate and file format are supported, the playback of all files is not guaranteed.

right-click the file on the PC. If there is a [License] tab, the file is DRM-copyrighted.
When you listen to music via a home network, it may take some time, since each DLNA-compatible device has to recognize the component
currently used.
You may not be able to play back some content of DLNA certified products.
