Locating and playing media fi les using UPnP
Once the UPnP server has been confi gured to share media fi les with your
radio, you may select the fi les that you wish to play as follows:-
1. Press the On/Off button to switch on the unit. Press and release the
Mode button as needed until the Music Player mode display is shown.
The main Music Player menu will then be displayed.
2. Rotate the Tuning/Select control until 'Shared media' is highlighted
on the display and then press the control to cause the radio to scan
for UPnP servers. Note that it may take a few seconds for the radio
to complete its scan. The display will return to the Music Player menu
if no UPnP servers are found.
3. After a successful scan, rotate the Tuning/Select control to highlight
your UPnP server and then press the Tuning/Select control. If the
display shows multiple media types, select 'Music'. (Some UPnP
servers can serve pictures and video content to suitable devices.)
4. The radio will now list the media categories which are made available
by the UPnP server - for example, 'Album', 'Artist' and 'Genre'. Rotate
the Tuning/Select control to highlight which category you wish to
browse, then press the control to confi rm your choice.
If you wish to use the search function rotate the Tuning/Select control
until 'Search' is selected on the display. You may select characters to
build a keyword for searching for content to play.
When you fi rst set up sharing with a UPnP server, not all of your fi les will
be available immediately. The UPnP server must look inside each fi le to
identify the artist and album information from 'tags' embedded in them.
The server may also need time to access the Internet to obtain additional
information such as 'album art' which it can display when you examine
your music library on your PC. For a library of many fi les this can take
some time.
