Playing Music from a USB Hard Drive
Connect your USB hard drive to the Mondo Alto. If your drive requires more power, you may
want to use a USB powered hub in between the Mondo Alto and the USB hard drive, then
select ‘Media Player,’ then select ‘USB,’ then you will be able to navigate and play your music
using the Tune Knob.
UPnP Media Servers
The Mondo Alto will play music from network connected UPnP or DNLA media servers.
You must rst make sure that the media server is on the same network as the Mondo Alto,
then select ‘Media Player,’ then select ‘UPnP,’ then select your device and you will be able to
navigate and play your music using the Tune Knob.
NOTE: The Mondo Alto is a media player and renderer. This means that the features and functionality are driven by
your media player software. To optimize the performance, keep your media player folder size to a manageable size.
The larger the folder size, the longer it takes the Mondo Alto to display the folder content and scroll through them.
Additionally, check the product specications section of the manual to see the supported
protocols pages 43-46. If you have a mixture of supported and unsupported formats in a
folder on your media server, depending on your software, the radio will be able to see all,
some, or none of the folders. So, it is always best to make sure the folder you want the Mondo
Alto to access only has supported formats /bit rates etc.
