Note:

Do not worry if not all of your media appear in the menus immediately.

Windows Media Player needs to look inside each file to identify the artist,

album and track information from 'tags' embedded in each file. 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 file types made available

to the 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 flexibility 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 files.

Many UPnP server applications are also capable of sharing pictures and

video files 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 radio.
