3.4 Setting up a music server

In order for R4 to play music files from a comput-
er, the computer must be set up to share files or
media.
UPnP media sharing allows devices like R4 to
play music from a shared media library navigating
through tag menus such as Artist, Album or Gen-
re. 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.
Notice: iTunes does not currently work as a UPnP
media server, but there are add-ons available to
work with an iTunes library.
3.5 Sharing media with Windows Media
Player
The most common UPnP server is Windows
Media Player (10 or later). Alternatively, other UPnP
platforms and servers may be used. 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 con-
nected to the same network.
3. In WMP, add to the media library the audio files
and folders you want to share with R4 (Library >
Add to Library...).
4. In WMP, enable media sharing (Library > Media
sharing...).
Notice: setup can differ depending on which ver-
sion of WMP you have
Notice; it may show; R4, "Unknown device",
"Frontier Silicon" or the Jupiter logo as shown
below.
Make sure that the radio has access to the shared
media by selecting it and clicking Allow.
You can also set a name for the shared media in
Settings... Click OK to close the dialogue boxes.
The PC is now ready to stream the music to the
radio. The WMP UPnP service runs in the back-
ground; there is no need to start WMP explicitly.
