The manner in which the UPnP™
server is set up will define how
the audio files and playlists it
holds are listed and displayed. In
most cases the default setup will
list and display files by artist and
album, but list by genre and predefined playlists may also
be available.
Note: Playlists cannot be generated or stored locally by
NDS. To play a playlist it must reside on the UPnP™ server.
Selecting one of the playlist
categories using the up (5),
down (6) and ok/list keys
will display a menu showing
items that fall into the selected
category. An entire category can
be selected for playback by using the up (5), down (6)
keys followed by the play/pause ( ) key.
Alternatively, selecting a category using the up (5), down
(6) keys followed by the ok/list key will display the full list
of tracks contained within the category. Tracks can then
be selected for playback by using the up (5), down (6)
and ok/list keys.
In long lists the handset numeric/text keys can be used to
jump through the list alphabetically.
Once playback is underway the NDS display will exit from
list mode and revert to normal mode where the handset
transport keys ( ) can be used to control
playback. To re-enter list mode for further list browsing and
selecting press the handset ok/list key.
During playback, pressing the handset info ( ) key will
sequentially display the server name, buffer level, track
elapsed time and stream (audio file) information.
Note: Buffer level indicates the quantity of stored data
within NDS and reflects the ability of the network to provide
data at the necessary rate.
UPnP™ Audio Interface
6 NDS UPnP™ Audio Interface
In addition to providing the network connection required for internet radio playback, the
NDS network interface enables audio files stored on UPnP™ servers to be streamed and
played. NDS must be connected, either wirelessly or via Ethernet cabling, to a network
router. If the router provides an internet connection it should incorporate a firewall. If NDS
is already connected to a network, begin by selecting the UPnP™ input.
6.1 UPnP™ Servers
UPnP™ servers incorporate a software application that
allows NDS, or any other UPnP™ compatible player, to
play audio stored and streamed by another device on the
network. The UPnP™ server is usually a PC or Mac home
computer, although some Network Attached Storage
(NAS) drives incorporate a UPnP™ application.
Windows Media™ Player version 11 or above incorporates
built in UPnP™ support and a variety of third party UPnP™
applications are also available that are compatible with
both Windows and Macintosh operating systems.
In the case of the Windows UPnP™ server the following
steps must be taken before music can be streamed to
NDS:
Ensure Windows Media™ Player version 11 or above is
installed.
Enable Windows Media™ Player file sharing. From the
Media Player Options dialogue select Library > Configure
Sharing… then select Share my media.
Ensure the firewall is configured to allow file sharing.
6.2 Audio File Compatibility
The audio files stored on the UPnP™ servers attached to
the network may be in MP3, M4A, Apple Lossless, AAC,
LPCM16/24, FLAC, WMA, WAV, AIFF or Ogg Vorbis formats.
Files must be free of any digital rights management
playback restrictions such as the Apple iTunes FairPlay
system.
6.3 Scanning Servers and Playing Files
When the NDS UPnP™ input
is selected a list of available
UPnP™ servers on the network
will be displayed. The display will
automatically enter list mode so
the handset up (5), down (6
)and ok/list keys can be used to browse and select the
desired server.
Note: Allegro Media Server
(shown in the illustrations) is a
UPnP™ Media Server application
that runs on Apple or Windows
PCs and provides access to
media files and iTunes library
contents from UPnP™ media
players such as NDS.
