Locating and playing media
fi
les using UPnP
Once the UPnP server has been con
fi
gured to share media
fi
les with your
sound system, you may select the
fi
les that you wish to play as follows:-
1. Press the
On/Standby
button to switch on the unit. Press the
Mode
button as needed until the
Music Player
mode display is shown. The
main Music Player menu will then be displayed.
2. Rotate
the
Tuning/Select
control until
'Shared media'
is highlighted
on the display and then press the control to cause the sound system
to scan for UPnP servers. Note that it may take a few seconds for
the sound system to complete its scan. The display will return to the
Music Player menu if no UPnP servers are found.
3. After a successful scan, rotate the
Tuning/Select
control to highlight
your UPnP server and then press the
Tuning/Select
control. If the
display shows multiple media types, select
'Music'
. (Some UPnP
servers can serve pictures and video content to suitable devices.)
4. The sound system will now list the media categories which are made
available by the UPnP server - for example,
'Album'
,
'Artist'
and
'Genre'
.
Rotate the
Tuning/Select
control to highlight which category you wish
to browse, then press the control to con
fi
rm your choice.
If you wish to use the search function rotate the
Tuning/Select
control
until
'Search'
is selected on the display. You may select characters to
build a keyword for searching for content to play.
When you
fi
rst set up sharing with a UPnP server, not all of your
fi
les will
be available immediately. The UPnP server must look inside each
fi
le to
identify the artist and album information from 'tags' embedded in them.
The server may also need 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. For a library of many
fi
les this can take
some time.
