Internet AlbumArt Lookup
An AudioReQuest can now automatically look up AlbumArt when properly configured to connect to the Internet. AlbumArt
can be added to albums in a collection in the following ways:
While encoding a CD in the AudioReQuest, the system will automatically connect to the FreeDB database to retrieve the text
information and simultaneously look up the AlbumArt associated with CD in the tray.
For albums on the system which currently do not have AlbumArt, go to the Menu/Setting/CD & AlbumArt Lookup.
Navigate to an album or a song, press edit and scroll down to the AlbumArt Lookup option.
To add, edit, or delete AlbumArt manually, the Java AlbumArt Manager is available on the built in web server.
Play While Encoding
The AudioReQuest will now continue to play while encoding a CD placed in the CD tray. The QuickPlay commands Play,
Next/Previous Track, Album, Artist, Genre, Playlist; Random, Pause, Stop, and Discrete Playlists can be initiated while
encoding is taking place.
New Screensaver
The original AudioReQuest/Cats screen saver is now replaced with a new version, which allows on-screen viewing of the
currently playing AlbumArt and song information, digital pictures, or both.
To create settings for the new screen saver, go to Menu/Settings/TV Settings/Screen Saver Settings. Here you can enable
the screen saver, set the delay before it starts, and choose to show AlbumArt, Digital Pictures, or both. You can also set the
interval time between Slideshow pictures.
To add or remove images from the Digital Pictures selection, upload or delete JPEG pictures in the "Pictures" shared
network folder through Samba.
