8. Press the Tuning Up or Down buttons to highlight the media ﬁ les that

you wish to play and then press the Select button.

Note:

Do not worry if not all of your media appear in the menus immediately.
Windows Media Player needs to look inside each ﬁ le to identify the artist,
album and track information from 'tags' embedded in each ﬁ le. Additionally,
Windows Media Player may take time to access the Internet to obtain
additional information such as 'album art' which it can display when you
examine your music library on your PC.

In UPnP mode the search criteria offered and the ﬁ le types made available
to the clock radio are a function of the UPnP server software installed on
your PC. Such software can vary quite widely in its capabilities. Windows
Media Player 11 has limited ﬂ exibility compared to some UPnP servers,
but is generally easy to set up and reliable.

Some third party server applications allow customisation of the search
criteria and indexing methods, which can be useful if you have a very
large collection of stored music ﬁ les.

Many UPnP server applications are also capable of sharing pictures and
video ﬁ les to other network connected devices. If this is the case (as it
is with Windows Media Player 11) you may see the option of choosing
between 'Music', 'Video' and 'Pictures' on your radios menu. Clearly you
should only select the 'Music' option. Content offered via the alternative
options will not be playable on your clock radio.

9. The clock radio will display '[Add to Queue]'. Press the Select button

and the clock radio will add all the tracks in the album to its queue
and begin playing them automatically.
