PROBLEM

SOLUTION

While searching, “Unsorted List” 

appears

a)  The field being searched (Album, Artist, Track, Genre, 

etc). May contain foreign characters. Rename any such 

field using latin characters.

b)  Confirm that the list being searched is in alphabetical 

order.

Some music files do not appear in the 

list of music available on a server

a)  The music files are DRM protected. The IM-NET 

Integration Module does not play DRM protected files.

b)  Music files are incompatible. Confirm that the music files 

are stored in a compatible format.

Cannot play .m4a extension music files 

in my Apple iTunes library.

 The IM-NET module is designed to play Apple iTunes to 

resident AAC, MP3, WAV and AIFF encoded music files. It 

does not play “Apple Lossless Encoded” or ALE (sometimes 

called ALAC) music files. To see the kind of encoder used, 

point to the top bar of the iTunes music library, 

right click

 

and then check “kind” to show this information. Note that 

both AAC and ALE encoded music files can have .m4a  

file extensions.

Music files are not appearing in the 

correct order

a)  The order in which songs are displayed depends on 

the server specifications/setup. If, due to the server 

specifications the files are not displayed in alphabetical 

order, search functions may not work properly.

Admin Utility for the IM-NET module 

cannot be accessed from my browser

a)  The IM-NET Integration Module is not connected to the 

same home network. Confirm that your IM-NET module 

has an IP address and that it does not conflict with other 

devices on the home network.

b)  An incorrect IP address has been entered into the 

browser. Confirm that the correct address for the IM-NET 

is entered into your browser.

c)  Your computer is not connected to the home network.
