Playing Your Music

Transporter plays music that you select with the remote control, front panel controls or web

interface.

Using the Remote or Front Panel to Play Music

1. Press the BROWSE button to jump to the Browse list.

2. You can scroll down to browse by artist, genre, year, new music, existing playlists, or

browse the contents of your music folder.

3. To browse an album, artist, or genre, press the

RIGHT arrow (or the center of the

knob) to select it, then scroll through the list.

4. When you ﬁ nd an album, artist, genre or song you want to listen to, press

PLAY to play

all the songs associated with the displayed item.

Tip: If you want to play the selected songs after the songs that you are already

listening to, press

ADD and they will be added to the end of the list.

5. Press NOW PLAYING to jump to the list of songs that you have selected to play. Scroll

through the list with the

UP and DOWN arrows. Press the LEFT arrow to return to the

main Transporter Home menu.

Using the Web Interface to Play Music

1. Open the web interface in your browser.

If you are using the computer where you installed SlimServer, go to

http://localhost:9000/

If you are using a different computer on the same local network as the SlimServer

computer, use

http://<IPaddress>:9000/ where <IPaddress> is the IP address or

name of the SlimServer computer. See the Troubleshooting section at the end of

this guide for details.

Tip: Windows users can use the SlimServer System Tray icon to bring up the web

interface automatically on their SlimServer computer. Mac users can use the

SlimServer pane in System Preferences to bring up the web interface.

2. From the left pane of the web interface, you can browse by a variety of categories,

including album, artist, genre, album cover art (if available), new music, by year, and

more.

3. When you ﬁ nd an album, artist, track, or playlist you want to listen to, click on the play

icon to the right of it to hear it immediately. To add an item to be played at the end of

the playlist, click on the add icon.

Searching for Music with the Remote or Front Panel

You can enter the name of the song, artist or album you are looking for in two ways. In each

case, the cursor automatically advances three seconds after you press a button. If the button

you want next is different from the last button you pressed, you can proceed as quickly as

you want. If you have to press the same button consecutively, wait for the cursor to advance

before pressing the button again, or press the

RIGHT arrow to move on.

Tip: You don’t have to enter the entire album name, artist name, or song title to

search successfully; just enter the ﬁ rst few letters and press

RIGHT, then scroll down

through the results using the

DOWN arrow.

Using the arrows or knob to enter letters or numbers:

1. Press the

UP or DOWN arrows or turn the knob until the character you want is

displayed.

2. Press the

RIGHT arrow or center of the knob once to advance one space to the right.

3. Fix errors by pressing the

LEFT arrow or the BACK button.

4. After you’ve entered all of the text you want to use for the search, press the

RIGHT

arrow twice to run the search.

Using the “cellphone” method to enter letters or numbers with the remote:

1. Press the black number buttons (

2 – 9) one, two, three or four times for letters and

numbers.

2. Press the

0 (zero) button for a space.

3. Press the

1 button repeatedly to cycle through punctuation.

4. Press the

LEFT arrow to erase letters. Press and hold to erase more than one character.

5. Press the

RIGHT arrow when you are ﬁ nished entering text to run the search.

Creating and Saving a Playlist

You can use the remote control or the web interface to create playlists and save them for later.

Before you create and save a playlist, make sure you have speciﬁ ed a folder for Transporter to

use for saving playlists.

To specify a playlists folder:

1. From the web interface, click the Server Settings link.

2. In the Playlists Folder section, enter the path to the folder on your hard drive that you

want Transporter to use for saving playlists, and click Change.

To create a playlist using the web interface:

1. Search or browse through your music library for music you want to put in the playlist.

2. When you locate a song, album, artist or genre you want to put in the playlist, click

the plus (+) sign next to it. It is added to the current Now Playing playlist.

3. To change the order of the tracks in the playlist, use the up and down arrows to move

tracks up and down the list.

4. To save the playlist, click the

SAVE button at the top of the current playlist, on the

right half of the page. The new playlist should appear on the left side of the page.

Enter the name you want to give this playlist and click Save. The playlist is saved to the

folder you speciﬁ ed. To ﬁ nd it again, use the Browse Playlists feature.
