Locating and playing media fi les using UPnP
Once the UPnP server has been confi gured to share media fi les with
your speaker, you may select the fi les that you wish to play as follows:-
1. Ensure your speaker is switched on. Select Music Player as the music
source. Select 'Browse' and the main Music Player menu will then be
displayed.
2. Select 'Shared media' to cause the speaker to scan for UPnP servers.
Note that it may take a few seconds for the speaker to complete its
scan.
3. After a successful scan select your UPnP server. If the display shows
multiple media types, select 'Music'. (Some UPnP servers can serve
pictures and video content to suitable devices.)
4. UNDOK will now list the media categories which are made available
by the UPnP server - for example, 'Album', 'Artist' and 'Genre'. Select
which category you wish to browse.
If you wish to use the search function select 'Search'. 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 or device. For a library of many fi les this
can take some time.
