and within the file is the URL of the radio station.
When you want to play a radio station, the MediaMVP application running on the PC opens
that file, goes to the URL within the file and then streams the audio over your network to the
MediaMVP, where the audio is then played out to your TV set.
If the file holds a link which is not valid (a
link which does not directly point to an
Internet radio station), then the
MediaMVP radio software waits for about
1 minute before it senses that it cannot
open the URL and find a radio station.
Mediamvp will then return to the Radio
menu.
