You have a third party firewall in your network, which is preventing file sharing.
If you have a third party firewall (Like Norton, or Zone Alarm) that will have its own control panel and
you will need to consult the manual for your firewall.
If your PC is connected to a managed network, with a server sometimes the PC being searched for
needs to be server Workgroup.
4.You can see the PC you want to play music from, but cannot find any folders on the PC:
The folder which has your music in it is not shared. You will need to locate the file you want to share,
right click on the folder, and select 'Properties', Then tick share this file.
The folder is not in an accessible place, i.e. it is in, My music, My documents or on the Desktop. You
will need to mode the folder to the root directory.
You have entered the wrong user name or password for the PC account you are trying to access.
Check and re-enter the user name and password, note the password is case sensitive.

Playlists:
Some media ripping applications allow 'Playlists' to be created. The Internet Radio is able to detect
and stream these playlists, but they must be stored in the folder with the rest of the Media content
and they must have the file extension.m3u. Windows Media player can create suitable playlist, just
select 'create new playlist', drag and drop the tracks you want into the playlist, then use 'Save as' to
ensure the file type is .m3u. (Existing play lists can be opened and re-saved in this format) When the
Internet Radio detects you have playlists, it will enable a new menu option allowing the playlist to be
selected and added to the queue.

You have a firewall running which is preventing the internet radio from seeing the shared folder.
As a quick check, you can disable firewalls like Norton to see if this overcomes the problem, if this
resolves the issue then you can either leave the firewall off, or allow file sharing through the
fire wall.
NOTE: If you firewall is required to provide security for your system, it should not be left off.
NOTE: Although you can share a CD drive, you cannot stream music directly from the drive.
5.Whenever I enter my media folder , the internet radio rescans the content of the folder:
Although the folder with your music in it is shared , it is 'write protected', so the
Internet Radio cannot save a list of the folder's content back onto the PC, as it needs to rescan
each time.Tick the box that allows the Folder to be modified across the network.
6.Although I can see my music files in the folder, I cannot play them and the Internet Radio says
they are 'Protected':
When you copied the music files to the hard drive you had 'Personal Rights management' turned
on, this protects the files from being played by a third party
device like the Internet Radio, you will need to copy the music files again, but with the protection
turned off.You are trying to play I-Tune files which have been purchased from the I-Tunes on
line store, these are protected and can only be played on an I-Pod. Locally created or 'ripped' files
for I-Pods can be played as they do not carry the extra layer of Media Protection.
7.I can access the PC with my Media, but when I change to the Use Account, I cannot see the
folder , although it is shared when I check my PC:
The Alternative account on the machine may be Private. If when the account was created, the
'Make this account Private' option was selected, then the contents of this account cannot be
seen over the network. You will need to move the music to an accessible account.
8.I can't share a folder , as the option is not highlighted:
The share folder option will not be available until you have turned simple file sharing on. Run the
wizard.
Scan Error:
When the internet radio is scanning the content of the folders on a PC, it is possible that a scan
error may occur if the windows file sharing application times out. This is most likely to occur if both
the PC with the media content and the Internet Radio are connected wirelessly.
Try re-connecting the PC with the media content into the network via cable. This will dramatically
increase the speed at which the Internet Radio is able to scan the content of the Media PC.
If you re-connect to another PC of folder, which does not have any Playlists in the .m3u. format, the
playlist option will not be presented in the menu.
9.If the Internet Radio keeps re-buffering radio station:
The Internet Radio is streaming the data from the radio station via your broadband connection,
if there is a high error rate on your broadband connection, or the connection is intermittent, then it
will cause the Internet Radio to pause until the connection is re-established and it has received
enough data to start playing again.
If your Internet Radio keeps stopping, please check the DSL modem to ensure that the Broadband
line is not suffering a high error rate or disconnections. If you are experiencing these problems, you
will need to contact your broadband
supplier.
10. What is Buffering?
When playing a stream, the Internet Radio/Media player, downloads a small amount of the stream
before it starts playing. This is used to fill in any gaps in the stream that may occur if the internet or
the wireless network is busy.
The Internet Radio streams music data from the PC while you are listening. If a stream gets blocked
or experiences Internet congestion while transferring it may stop/interfere with the quality of play. If
this happens, check your internet connection speed- it must be faster than the speed of the streams.
