Music Player Accessing your audio files via a UPnP server If your computer is running Windows 7, then Windows Media Player (version 12) includes a UPnP server which will make your files available to your radio. If you have Windows Vista or XP please see page 96. There are other UPnP server solutions available for non-Windows users and for Windows users who may wish to use an alternative (see the preceding page). Enabling Media Streaming in Windows Media Player 12 It is beyond the scope of this instruction book to cover all possible options for UPnP. We explain the use of Microsoft's Windows Media Player here since that will be the first choice for the majority of users. 2 Set up UPnP access with Windows Media Player 12 1. Windows Media Player 12 (referred to here as WMP 12) can create a library from all the media files available to it on your PC. To add new media files to the library, select 'Library', then 'Music', then 'All music' or 'Artist', 'Album' etc. This will show you the current library contents. You may then simply drag and drop files from other locations into the library. Alternatively, with media files or folders on the screen, you may right-click on the file or folder and select 'Include in library' and then select 'Music'. In this way you can quickly add additional content to your music library. 2. In WMP 12, click on 'Stream' (see picture at right) and then select 'Automatically allow devices to play my media'. Then accept the 'Automatically allow all computer and media devices' option. There are other options (see overleaf) but this is the simplest if you just wish to quickly enable media streaming to your radio. 3. Press the On/Off button to switch the radio on. Then press the Mode button as needed until the Music Player mode display is shown. The main 'Music Player' menu will then be displayed.
