Internet radio mode
The WLD+201 can play thousands of radio stations
and podcasts from around the world though a
broadband Internet connection.
When you select Internet radio mode, the WLD+201
contacts the Frontier Silicon Internet radio portal to
get a list of stations, organised into different
categories like Country, Most popular and Genre.
Once you select a station, the WLD+201 connects
directly to that station.
The portal also enables multiple lists of favourite
stations that you can personalise, for example
Andy’s
stations
,
Jo’s favourites
,
Talkshows
, etc.
To use the favourites feature, register your radio with
the portal website as described on page 26. If you
have several Sansui radios, you can register them all
on the same account so that each radio has access
to the same favourites lists.
It is possible to add favourites either directly through
the WLD+201 or through any computer with a web
browser.
To enter Internet Radio mode, either press Mode until
the display shows
Internet Radio
or select
Menu >
Main menu > Internet Radio
.
Note: The station list menu is provided from the
Internet radio portal, so it is only accessible when the
WLD+201 is connected to the Internet. Station lists and
submenus may change from time to time.
There are several ways of selecting stations.
Directly from the radio:
• Last listened
• Pre-sets
Or from the portal through the
Menu >
Station list >
menu:
• Favourites lists
• Browse by Country, Genre, Most popular,
Newest
• Search by keyword
• My added stations
If you are already listening to an Internet radio station,
you can press Back rather than Menu to quickly return
to the last visited branch of the menu tree. For
example, suppose you were listening to
New Orleans
Radio t
hrough the browse facility as described in
section 4.4 below. Pressing Back would return you to
the
Highlighted Blues stations
menu. Pressing Back
again would return you to the
Blues
menu, and so on.
Last listened
When Internet radio mode restarts, the last-listened
station is selected. To select another recently used
station, select
Menu >
Last listened
then one of the stations listed.
Most recent stations appear at the top of the list.
