Accessing your audio fi les via a UPnP server
The recommended way to access your media fi les is via a UPnP server
application. This method offers normally simpler set up and superior fi le
searching compared to the Shared Folders method.
If your computer is running Windows (XP or Vista), then Windows Media
Player version 11 includes a UPnP server which will make your fi les
available to your radio. There are other UPnP server solutions available
for Windows users who may wish to use an alternative.
If you use an Apple computer running a version of OS X then you may
use a third party UPnP server application. Examples include EyeConnect
and Twonky Media Server.
If you use a version of the Linux operating system, there are a range of
UPnP server applications available.
It is beyond the scope of this instruction book to cover all possible options
for UPnP. We explain the use of Microsoft's Windows Media Player since
that will be the fi rst choice for the majority of users.
Set up UPnP access on a Windows PC
1. If your PC is running Microsoft Windows XP or Windows Vista then
you can use Microsoft's Windows Media Player version 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 web site and installed by following the instructions
detailed in its installation wizard, or by using Microsoft's Windows
Update facility.
2. Once installed, Windows Media Player 11 can create a library from all
the media fi les available to it on your PC. To add new media fi les to
the library, select 'File > Add to Library… > Advanced Options', click
'Add' and choose the fi les you wish to add and click ‘OK’.
