Selecting a podcast / BBC Listen Again

Some radio stations allow you to listen to programmes that have already been broadcast. The BBC's Listen Again service is an example of this. In addition, radio broadcasters and individuals may make programmes which are intended normally to be downloaded into a computer or copied onto a portable media player. These are commonly known as Podcasts.

On your radio, both Listen Again programmes and Podcasts are grouped together as Podcasts, and the same menu is used to access and listen to both types of programming. Listen Again programmes are also accessible via the Stations menu (see pages 21-22).

1.Press and hold the Menu button to enter the main Internet radio menu. Rotate the Tuning/Select control until 'Station list' is highlighted on the display and then press the control to select.

2.Rotate the Tuning/Select control until 'Podcasts' is highlighted on the display and then press the control to select.

3.You may then search by location, genre, or using part of the name of the podcast. The searches operate in exactly the same way as when searching for a conventional radio station.

Searching by location is done first by continent, then by country. You may then list 'All shows' or search within a country by genre. Searching by genre is more direct, since once the genre is chosen the next menu display shows a list of available podcasts. Searching by name operates in the same way as when searching for a named radio station, selecting the ' ' symbol when you have entered the text. You may enter one or more pieces of text which will be used for the search.

4.Rotate the Tuning/Select control and then press the control to confirm your chosen podcast. The display will show 'Connecting...' while it finds the new programme.

5.Stations which enable you to listen to previously broadcast programmes also may allow you to pause, fastforward and rewind the programme playing. Press and hold the Mode button. The media controls will show on the display. Rotate the Tuning/Select control to select the media control required and then press and release the control to Play or Pause and press and hold to fastforward or rewind. Press and release the Mode button to exit the media controls.

The pause, fastforward and rewind features are dependent on the programme or podcast and will not always be available.
