The tab „List of stations“ is used for complete management of the list of Internet radio 
stations stored in the LARA device. In LARA Radio, several stations are preset, which you 
can change or modify in any way.                                                          

 Edit stations*: In the section Edit stations, you can use the buttons to add new or modify existing 

stations in the list.

 List of stations: It is possible to store up to 40 presets into the list for music network streams. LARA 

Radio in its current version supports streams in the formats SHOUTcast and Icecast with audio for-
mats MP3, AAC and OGG, which are used in most cases of Internet broadcasting.

Control elements: After successful reading of stations along with overall device settings, you can 

browse the list of streams and change their order. For sorting and removing items from the list, use 
the relevant control elements on the right side of the list.

* To add a new station, you must know its source address, which is usually given in a variety of forms:
- http://www.servername.com:portnumber/filename
- http://135.111.258.333:8000/filename
- http://www.servername.com:8000/filename
- http://www.servername.com:8000
- http://135.111.258.333:8000
- http://www.servername.com/filename

storing in the fi le.

Device settings / Updating FW

 Select fi le: Pressing „Select fi le“ brings up a dialog window for searching and selecting the update 

fi le. After opening the selected fi le, its contents are checked, and the user is then informed of the 
result. If the correct fi le has been selected, the FW version number is displayed.

 Updating FW: Pressing the button starts the update, the progress of which is illustrated graphically. 

Reading a damaged or invalid fi le prevents the following updating steps, and it is necessary to repe-
at the process with the correct update fi le.

Adding new radio stations: after pressing the „add“ button, you begin entering the stream parameters into the relevant fi elds.

Manual completion:

- Name of station: name of preselection displayed on the OLED display.
- IP address: Server address where the stream is being broadcast. The server address must 

be entered in decimal format separated by periods. If it is an address with a domain 
name (www.servername.com), use the automatic completion option, see below.

- Port number: This is entered as a number in decimal format. (example 1: www.

servername.com:8000/hudba.mp3 - port number = 8000) If this port number is not 
listed in the address, enter port number 80 (example 2: www.servername.com/hudba.
mp3 - port no. = 80).

- File name: Not always used and not a required parameter for storing the station. 

(example 3: www.servername.com:8000/hudba.mp3 - fi le name = hudba.mp3) 
(example 4: www.servername.com:8000 - do not enter fi le name).

- After entering all necessary data, store the station in the list by pressing „Save“.

Note: If the fi le name has the extension *.m3u, it is not the music stream address , but a 
playlist address containing the address (or multiple addresses) in the music stream. In 
this case, use the option of automatic completion.

Automatic completion:

For most addresses, it is possible to use the function of automatic completion by the 
following steps:
- Enter any name of a station.
- Click the option „Automatic completion“ and after entering the address, confi rm by 

pressing „OK“.

- An information message will inform you of the result of the automatic processing of 

the link.

- Enter the station in the list by pressing „Save“.

Note: The automatic completion function requires an active Internet connection.

Important note:
