Playing a USB device
It is possible to listen to two-channel audio using the USB
interface on the front of this receiver.
Pioneer cannot guarantee compatibility (operation and/or
bus power) with all USB mass storage devices and
assumes no responsibility for any loss of data that may
occur when connected to this receiver.
This includes playback of WMA/MP3/MPEG-4 AAC files
(except files with copy-protection or restricted playback).
Compatible USB devices include external magnetic hard
drives, portable flash memory (particularly keydrives) and
digital audio players (MP3 players) of format FAT16/32. It is
not possible to connect this receiver to a personal
computer for USB playback.
With large amounts of data, it may take longer for the
receiver to read the contents of a USB device.
If the file selected cannot be played back, this receiver
automatically skips to the next file playable.
When the file currently being played back has no title
assigned to it, the file name is displayed in the OSD instead;
when neither the album name nor the artist name is
present, the row is displayed as a blank space.
Note that non-roman characters in the playlist are
displayed as ‘*’.
Make sure the receiver is in standby when disconnecting
the USB device.
1
Switch on the receiver and your TV.
See Connecting a USB device on page 17.
2
Switch the TV input so that it connects to the receiver.
Switch the TV input to the input that connects this
receiver to the TV through the corresponding
composite cable.
3
Press
iPod/USB
on the remote control to switch the
receiver to the iPod/USB input.
Loading appears in the OSD as this receiver starts
recognizing the USB device connected. After the
recognition, a playback screen appears in the OSD and
playback starts automatically.
Basic playback controls
This receiver’s remote control buttons can be used for basic
playback of files stored on USB devices.
Press
iPod/USB
to switch the remote control to the iPod/
USB operation mode.
If a USB Error message lights in the display, try following the
points below:
Switch the receiver off, then on again.
Reconnect the USB device with the receiver switched off.
Select another input source (like BD), then switch back to
iPod/USB.
Use a dedicated AC adapter (supplied with the device) for
USB power.
For more information on error messages, see USB messages
on page 38.
If this doesn’t remedy the problem, it is likely your USB device
is incompatible.

combinations for compressed audio are compatible, some
irregularly encoded files may not play back. The list below
shows compatible formats for compressed audio files:

About MPEG-4 AAC
