Playing a USB device

It is possible to play files using the USB interface on the front
of this receiver.
Important
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.
About one minute is required between turning the power
on and completion of startup.
Note
Compatible USB devices include external magnetic hard
drives, portable flash memory (particularly keydrives) and
digital audio players (MP3 players) of format FAT16/32.
Copyrighted audio files cannot be played back on this
receiver.
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.
