Chapter 4 Internet Radio
4.1 Introduction
Internet radio is an audio broadcasting service transmitted via the Internet. By using internet
radio devices, listeners receive a continuous stream of audio from internet radio stations.
The system supports many audio stream sources such as Microsoft (mms://..)
SHOUTCast.

Today most traditional FM radio stations in the world offer on-line radio services or
programs. The system can connect to those on-line radio services or programs. Moreover,
the system categorizes those stations by country, and sorts them under World Station file.
This makes it easy to search for or to find a particular radio station.
4.2 World Station
System requirements: We recommend broadband internet connection (xDSL/Cable
Modem). However, Internet Radio does not support PPPoE(ADSL) or ISP Proxy (cable
modem). We strongly recommend connecting with a broadband router to have better
quality of audio streaming.
˙ If there is no internet connection on your system, Wizard mode will be automatically
activated. Please follow the instructions shown on the screen to establish network
connection.
