5. Music player mode (network)
Music player mode plays audio files such as MP3s, AACs,
WMAs or FLACs from a computer on the local network.
To enter Music player mode, either press Mode until the
display shows Music player, or select Menu > Main
Once in music player mode, press Menu , then select
Shared media.
Note: Stream3M does not support USB playback
as shown in the picture.
If you are already playing a music file, you can press Back rather than Menu to quickly return to the
last visited branch of the menu tree. For example, suppose you were listening to the track Heat by the
artist 50 Cent through browsing shared media as described in section
0 below. Pressing Back would
return you to the track listing for the album Get Rich or Die Tryin’. Pressing Back again would list all
50 Cent albums. Pressing Back again would list all album artists, and so on.
You can use << and >> to move through tracks. Press and hold to rewind or fast forward and press
quickly to select previous or next track.
5.1 Shared media (from UPnP media server)
Select Menu > Shared media >
If you have set up shared media (as described on page 12-13), you should see an entry consisting of
<computer name>: <Shared media name>, for example JB-Laptop: Audio. If you have more than one
computer sharing media, the alternatives are listed. Select the shared media you want to play.
From this point on, the menus are generated from the shared
media server (typically Windows Media Player). The first menu
shows a list of media types, for example Music, Video, Pictures and
Playlists. Stream3M can only play music and playlists.
There is also a search function, which finds tracks in a similar
way to Internet radio search, as described on page 16.
From Music, there are numerous ways of selecting tracks, including:
• Genre
• Artist
• Album
• Composer
• Rating
Once you have found a track you want to play, press Select .
A short press plays the track immediately and a long press adds
the track to the playlist. You can also add entire albums to the playlist.
Stream3M plays either the selected track or the playlist.
