Media Player

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 Windows Media Player
11 (WMP11) to act as your UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) media server 1.0. Windows Media Player 11
may be downloaded from Microsoft's website and installed by following the instructions detailed in its
installation wizard.
2. Once installed, Windows Media Player 11 will 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'.
3. 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. In order to this, you will need to do the following:
a. Keep pressing BACK to get to the radio's top-level menu and then turn the rotary knob to select
'Media Player'.
b. Press SELECT and then turn the knob to section 'UPNP Servers'.
c. Press SELECT and the radio will scan for all available 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
'[Empty]'. The radio will continue to display '[Empty]' if no UPnP servers are found.
d. After a successful scan, select your UPnP server, by rotating the knob if there is more than one
UPnP server, and then press SELECT (note, your radio will display 'Access Denied' at this stage).
4. Your PC will now prompt you that a device has attempted to connect to your UPnP server. In order to allow
the radio to have access to the media files, you will need to click the 'Library' tab from Windows Media
Player 11 and select the 'Media Sharing...' item to open the 'Media Sharing' window.
