Configure My Streams
1. Once logged into your Reciva website account, you can add your own
Internet radio streams to the My Streams section, which is listed
under the My Account section. Typically, these will be Internet radio
stations that you will have found using your computer.
2. Clicking on My Streams will prompt you to enter the station’s name
and its media stream URL. The media stream URL should be a link
to a website’s actual audio stream. If you have any doubt about
locating the media stream URL from a webpage, then please refer
to the FAQs section on Reciva’s website, http://www.reciva.com.
3. Once you have Internet radio streams available in your My
Streams list, you may play these stations from your Internet Radio.
These stations will be available on your radio from the menu item:
‘My Stuff > My Streams’.
Please note, the My Stuff menu item and your personal selection of
radio streams (My Streams) will only be available on your radio once
your radio has downloaded a new radio stations list. To cause the radio
to download a new list of stations immediately, please remove and
reconnect the power to your radio.
Media Player
The Media Player allows you to play audio files which are stored on a
computer on your network, or USB and SD card. Supported file formats
are MP3 and WMA (Even the Internet radio supports MP3, WMA,
AAC, Real Audio). Note that the playback of DRM protected content is
not supported.
When using Windows Shares, music selection is by Artist, by Album
and optionally by track within an Album. When using a UPnP server,
the search and selection criteria are determined by the server,
but typically include additional options such as Genre. Many server
applications also allow you to access files according to the folders
within which they are stored.
Note that the references to ‘PC’ in this section refer to any computer
device that may be sharing content on your network, whether it is a
Windows device, an Apple computer, a Linux device, or any other.
We use the generic term ‘PC’ simply because it is short
and convenient.
