Will the Rio Receiver work with 10 Base-T Ethernet network adapters?

The light on my Rio Receiver goes out after a period of time, why is this?

The light on the display is meant to assist you when you are making menu selections. It will activate when you choose menu selections. After you finish making selections, the light will go out. This is to ensure a longer life for your Rio Receiver display.

How does the Rio Receiver know what the album and song title are?

This information is retrieved from the ID3 tag portion of the MP3 file information. The ID3 tag contains all of the track information. If you encode your own MP3 files from existing CD music, be sure to use a 'CDDB' (online CD music title data base) feature for the most accurate track information when using your Rio Receiver.

When I disconnect the Rio Receiver or shut down the Audio Receiver Manager program, the music continues to play for a short time. Why?

The Rio Receiver stores a small portion of the song being played (15-30 seconds) to help eliminate any interruption in your music playback. When the server computer is stopped or a connection is broken, the Rio Receiver will continue to play the current song until this stored portion of the song is played.

Why does my Scandisk program keep restarting when I use the Rio Receiver?

When you want to run Scandisk on your computer, exit the Audio Receiver Manager program and turn off the Rio Receiver. Otherwise, the Rio Receiver will continue to access the computer’s hard drive for songs and Scandisk will restart its process from the beginning.
