Configure My Streams
1.Once logged into your Reciva website account, you can add your own Internet radio streams to the My Streams section, which is listed under the My Account section. Typically, these will be Internet radio stations that you will have found using your computer.
2.Clicking on My Streams will prompt you to enter the station’s name and its media stream URL. The media stream URL should be a link to a website’s actual audio stream. If you have any doubt about locating the media stream URL from a webpage, then please refer to the FAQs section on Reciva’s website, http://www.reciva.com.
3.Once you have Internet radio streams available in your My Streams list, you may play these stations from your Internet Radio. These stations will be available on your radio from the menu item: ‘My Stuff > My Streams’.
Please note, the My Stuff menu item and your personal selection of radio streams (My Streams) will only be available on your radio once your radio has downloaded a new radio stations list. To cause the radio to download a new list of stations immediately, please remove and reconnect the power to your radio.
Media Player
The Media Player allows you to play audio files which are stored on a computer on your network, or USB and SD card. Supported file formats are MP3 and WMA (Even the Internet radio supports MP3, WMA, AAC, Real Audio). Note that the playback of DRM protected content is not supported.
When using Windows Shares, music selection is by Artist, by Album and optionally by track within an Album. When using a UPnP server, the search and selection criteria are determined by the server,
but typically include additional options such as Genre. Many server applications also allow you to access files according to the folders within which they are stored.
Note that the references to ‘PC’ in this section refer to any computer device that may be sharing content on your network, whether it is a Windows device, an Apple computer, a Linux device, or any other.
We use the generic term ‘PC’ simply because it is short and convenient.
