Hi All,
I am looking for advice on how to use the streaMer in my d200.I have a windo PC and a Seagate nas drive.Can I play music from my nas drive through the streamer?
Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can give.

You need JRiver/Foobar/iTunes to play music on your NAS and use Air to stream to D200.
Have a look at the following setup guide:

There isn't a built in streamer in the Devialets, it's an artistic exaggeration they make - you instead need to use a PC or Mac based streamer like J River or iTunes. The Devialet is only a receiver for someone else's streamer in reality, like a sound card.
Thanks for the replies.I have windows media player and iTunes on my PC although I thought iTunes was for apple devices.
There is a Windows version of iTunes as well. But I highly recommend JRiver and the accompanying JRemote app for your iDevice. JRiver will play bitperfect (wasapi) if you've got your settings right.
It's only a windows PC I have and an android phone.My music is stored as wav and flac files on a Seagate nas.Am I right in thinking I would need to use the windows version of iTunes to access the music on my nas drive

I second this. Just experimenting with the above at this stage and its excellent. The Remote app really is top drawer.
Can you use jriver on a windows PC?I noticed Charlemagne mentioned using it with an I device which I don't have.
Of course you can use JRiver straightaway on your PC. JRemote is just a remote app to use it on your iDevice. You also might consider a remote desktop app. Splashtop is one of these to be used on an iPad. There must be Android verslons as well I guess.

With a remote desktop app, like Splashtop, you can use your tablet as a monitor of your pc and have access to all it's programms.
