To use AirPlay, please make sure your Denon AVR or network device is connected to your local network.(LAN) Then, open up your iOS device's Music folder or iTunes. For video support, you can use an Apple TV to stream videos or movies. The AirPlay compatibility software in the AVR is for audio only and will not support video. This communication works to use your iOS device (iTunes) as a media server so that your audio files can be streamed through the local network and out to your Denon receiver or network device. AirPlay is software that allows your Apple devices (iOS devices) and your AVR to communicate.
