Music player
(Playing music stored in computer)
The Media Player allows you to play audio files which are stored on a
computer or a computer on your network.
Your radio supports two file access methods. It can connect to
Shard Folders on the network. It can also connect with file server
applications using the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) protocol
known as Shared Media.
All of the supported file types are playable in Windows Shares mode.
When using a UPnP server, the playable file types are dependant on
the server software used. For example, Microsoft Windows Media
Player11 can serve MP3, WMA and WAV files. To be able to play the
other supported file types via UPnP you may need to install additional
third-party software.
When using Windows Shares, music selection is by Artist, by Album
and optionally by track within an Album. When using a Shared Media
UPnP server, the search and selection criteria are determined by the
server, but typically include additional options such as Genre. Many
server applications also allow you to access files according to the
folders within which they are stored.
