USB hubs and USB devices with hub functions are not sup- ported. Do not connect your USB mass storage device via a USB hub.

USB memory devices with security functions are not supported.

In no event shall Onkyo be liable to you or any third party for any damages, whatsoever, arising from your use of or inability to use the firmware, including but not limited to, loss of any equipment, media or data, or other special, incidental or consequential dam- ages, even if Onkyo has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
