ADDING INTERNET RADIO STATIONS

FireBall comes preloaded with several high quality streaming Internet Radio Stations from around the world, but that may not be enough for you, so FireBall also let’s you add your own Internet Radio Stations.

Internet Radio stations must conform to these speciﬁcations:

•Windows Media WMA streams only. (MPEG, RealAudio, and other’s won’t work)

•Windows Media 8 or earlier. Windows Media 9 is not supported.

To add your own Internet Radio Stations, you will need to obtain the URL or Internet Link to the stream using your PC and Microsoft’s Windows Media Player. Please refer to the Microsoft web site for information on WMA and Windows Media Player.

Assuming you have a valid URL for a station, follow these steps to add your own Internet Radio Station to the Radio Guide:

1.Make sure you are in the Radio source mode by selecting the RADIO source mode on the left edge of the screen.

2.Select the OPTIONS button to display the Options Menu.

3.Select the New Station menu item.

4.Using the popup keyboard, enter information for the new station including: station name, location, URL, the bit rate of the stream, the genre, and the number of channels (mono or stereo). The cover art will be set according to which genre you select.

5.Select the SAVE button to save the new station.

•When you are ﬁnished creating your new station, the Radio Guide is displayed with the newly created Station.

•You can play the station just like any other Internet Radio station.
