8.5 Setting up a music server
In order for DR 460 to play music files from a computer, the computer
must be set up to share files or media.
UPnP media sharing allows devices like DR 460 to play music from a
shared media library, navigating through tag menus such as Artist,
Album or Genre. If you are running a suitable server system such as a
PC with Windows Media Player 10 or later (WMP), and your music
library is well-tagged, then it is recommended to use media sharing. Only
the UPnP server needs to be set up.
Note: iTunes does not currently work as a UPnP media server, but there are
add-ons available to work with an iTunes library.
Folder sharing (CIFS) allows devices like DR 460 to browse folders on
a network drive for audio files. This is a good alternative if you cannot
use media sharing, and an alternative way to find files even if you have
media sharing set up. The computer needs to be set up to share folders,
and if this is done with password control, you also need to enter the user
name and password.
8.6 Sharing media with Windows Media Player
The most common UPnP server is Windows Media Player (10 or later).
To set up WMP for media sharing, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure that the PC is connected to the network.
2. Ensure that the radio is powered on and connected to the same
network.
3. In WMP, add to the media library the audio files and folders you
want to share with DR 460 (Library > Add to Library…).
4. In WMP, enable media sharing (Library > Media sharing…).
