A. If you select ‘Windows Shares’ menu
(1) Scan for PCs is displayed, press the SELECT button. The system will scan your network and
a list of all available PCs will be displayed.
Note: If a PC does not have global file sharing turned on, or a third party firewall is protecting the
PC it will not be visible when you scan for it.
(2) Rotate the dial to highlight the PC you want to play music from and press the SELECT
button.
Note: You may be asked to enter a username and password to access the PC you have selected.
This is the same username and password you would enter to log into that machine.
(3) The Internet radio will now scan the PC you have selected and display a list of folders for
which 'file sharing' is enabled.
Note: The Internet radio will search your PC and find all folders with file sharing enabled,
regardless of content (i.e. folders with and without music files). Rotate the dial to select the folder
that contains the saved music, and press the select button.
(4) The radio will display ‘File Scan…’ as it scans through the media files in the shared folder.
The text on the bottom row of the display will change to indicate that the file scan is in
progress. If you have a large number of audio files this could take several minutes to
complete.
(5) You can now view the content of the shared folder by Album or Artist. Rotate the dial to
move through the list.
(6) When you select music to be played, it is added to the playlist and played sequentially.
Note: The first time a file scan is performed, a file called ‘.reciva_media_cache’ is written to the
folder where the audio files are stored. This is in order to speed up subsequent file scans.
