[. . . ] If your PC does not appear, check its file sharing and firewall settings. If the PC's security settings require it, the radio may ask for a user name and password. The radio will display `File Scan. . . ' as it scans through the media files in the shared folder. If you have a large number of audio files this could take several minutes to complete. Once the radio has finished scanning, it will display "By Album", "By Artist", etc. Use the Tuning+/- buttons to scroll through the scanned media files, which will now be organized `By Album', `By Artist' and `Playlists' ­ if available. And refer to "Operation after you set up for Window Shares , UPnP or USB/SD card" below for the operation. GB 22 UPnP server Set up a Windows PC to allow the radio to access your audio files via a UPnP server 1. If your PC is running Microsoft Windows XP or Windows Vista then you can use Microsoft's Windows Media Player 11 (WMP 11) to act as your UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) media server. If not already installed on your PC, Windows Media Player 11 may be downloaded from Microsoft's website and installed by following the instructions detailed in its installation wizard, or by using Microsoft's Windows Update facility. Once installed, WMP 11 can create a library from all the media files available to it on your PC. To add new media files to the library, select `File > Add to Library. . . > Advanced Options', click `Add' and choose the files you wish to add and click `OK'. You will now need to connect your Internet radio to Windows Media Player 11 and configure it to allow the radio to access your media library. Use the Tuning+/- and the Select buttons to enter the menu direction "Media Player> UPNP Servers". Note, this may take a few seconds for the radio to complete its scan and before the scan has completed, the radio will display `No PC Found'. The radio will continue to display "No PC Found" if no UPnP servers are found. After scanning, select your UPnP server (press the Tuning+/- and the Select button if more than one UPnP server is found), and then press the Select control. Your PC may now prompt you that a device has attempted to connect to your UPnP server. Whether you are prompted or not, in order to allow the radio to have access to the media files, you will need to click the `Library' tab in WMP 11 and select the `Media Sharing. . . ' item to open the `Media Sharing' window. From the `Media Sharing' window, the radio will be listed as an unknown device. Click on the unknown device shown to select it, then click the `Allow' button and then click `OK'. Note: If you are using Microsoft Windows' firewall software, this should be correctly configured by WMP 11. [. . . ] The radio station is broadcasting using an audio format which is not playable by your radio (although your radio does play almost all formats used by regular broadcasters). Try using a PC to play back the stream via the broadcaster's web site. If you can play back the station with a PC, use the form at http://www. reciva. com to notify Reciva so that they can update the station data that is used by the radio. [. . . ]
