occur if both the PC with the media content and the Internet
Radio are connected wirelessly.
Try re-connecting the PC with the media content into the
network via cable. This will dramatically increase the speed at
which the Internet Radio is able to scan the content of the
Media PC.
Playlists:
Some media ripping applications allow ‘Playlists’ to be created.
The Internet Radio is able to detect and stream these playlists,
but they must be stored in the folder with the rest of the Media
content and they must have the file extension “.m3u”.
Windows Media player can create suitable playlist. Select
‘create new playlist’, drag and drop the tracks you want into the
playlist, then use ‘Save as’ to ensure the file type is “.m3u”.
(existing playlists can be opened and re-saved in this format).
When the Internet Radio detects you have playlists, it will
enable a new menu option allowing the playlist to be selected
and added to the queue.
If you re-connect to another PC or folder which does not have
any playlists in the “.m3u” format, the playlist option will not be
presented in the menu.
6. If the Internet Radio keeps re-buffering radio station:
- The Internet Radio is streaming the data from the radio
station via your broadband connection. If there is a high error
rate on your broadband connection, or the connection is
intermittent, then it will cause the Internet Radio to pause until
the connection is re-established and it has received enough
data to start playing again.
- If your Internet Radio keeps stopping, please check the DSL
modem to ensure that the Broadband line is not suffering a
high error rate or disconnections. If you are experiencing
these problems, you will need to contact your broadband
supplier.
7. What is Buffering?
When playing a stream, the Internet Radio/Media player
downloads a small amount of the stream before it starts
playing. This is used to fill in any gaps in the stream that may
occur if the internet or wireless network is busy.
If a stream gets blocked or experiences Internet congestion
while transferring it may stop/interfere with the quality of play.
If this happens, check your internet connection speed. It must
be faster than the speed of the streams.
