troller to a network with Internet access (

AV controller from your computer and selecting stations
in your Web browser. Preset up to 40 Internet radio sta-
tions.
Internet radio URLs in the following formats are sup-
ported: PLS, M3U, and podcast (RSS). However, depend-
ing on the type of data or audio format used by the Internet

tions.
