4.8.7 UPnP™ Settings
The HDX operates as a UPnP™ music server providing
music files to any network attached UPnP™ compatible
playback device. Selecting UPnP™ Settings from the
System menu opens the UPnP™ Settings Menu to enable
the HDX UPnP™ settings to be configured appropriately.
Server Name: Select Server Name to specify the name
of the HDX UPnP™ server that will be seen by UPnP™
playback devices. The name can be changed by
selecting the name field to open a text entry screen.
Connected UPnP™ playback devices will have to be
restarted if the HDX name is changed.
Device Views: Select Device Views to specify how the
UPnP™ playback device views and browses the music files
available on the HDX and any connected Network Share
or USB device. Select All Music to view and browse all the
files available to the HDX. Select CD Collection to view
and browse just the ripped CDs held by HDX Music Stores.
Select Browse by Device to view and browse the files held
individually on each device connected to the HDX.
Note: Deselecting all Device View options will make all
music unavailable for UPnP™ playback.
Music Views: Select Music Views to specify the information
displayed by the UPnP™ playback device for each music
file available from the HDX. Albums, Artists, Playlists, Genres,
Tracks, Composers, Conductors, Performers, and Newest
CDs can be collectively or individually selected.
A-Z Index Options: Selecting A-Z Index Options enables
music collections to be divided alphabetically into
segments when displayed by the UPnP™ playback device.
First select Show Index to switch on segmented display
and then select the preferred alphabetic segment option.
The number in the right hand column corresponds to the
number of items in the music collection above which the
selected alphabetic segmentation is implemented. The
number can be adjusted for each segmentation option.
Language: Select Language to specify the interface
language that the UPnP™ playback device will display
when accessing the HDX.
Compatibility: Select Compatibility to specify the audio
data Stream Format that the HDX will stream to the UPnP™
playback device and to switch CD artwork transmission to
the playback device on or off.
The Stream Format options available are Native, CD
44.1kHz/16 bit and Convert to WAV:
Native: Streams audio files in the same format as they are
stored.
CD 44.1kHz/16 bit: Converts streamed files to CD format.
Convert to WAV: Converts files to WAV format while
retaining their native sample rate and bit depth.
Note: Native stream format offers the highest potential
audio quality followed by Convert to WAV and finally CD
44.1kHz/16 bit. The appropriate choice will depend on the
capability of the playback hardware. Select Native initially
and check that the playback hardware operates correctly
with all stored file formats. If it fails to operate at any time
select Convert to WAV. If it still fails occasionally select CD
44.1kHz/16 bit.
Reset to Defaults: Select Reset to Defaults to return the HDX
UPnP™ settings to their defaults.
