Listening to Internet Radio
In addition to retrieving the latest CD information from the 
online CDDB database (page 53) and accurate date and 
time data from a public time server (page 91), the MCX-2000 
can also receive online radio broadcasts by accessing to the 
Internet. Since the MCX-2000 comes with several Internet 
radio sites preassigned, you can enjoy listening to online 
radio programs right away once you’ve set up the unit for 
Internet access (page 31).
n The MCX-2000 only supports Internet radio stations that stream 
music and audio in MP3 format.
From the Radio menu screen (page 54), select Internet 
Radio. A list of Internet radio sites is shown in the screen.
 
Move the selection (highlight) to the desired Internet radio 
station, and then press the SELECT or Play button on the 
remote control or select the Play command from the Submenu.
n Other Submenu commands, such as Edit Site title, Edit URL and 
Clear this Site, let you newly register or edit an Internet radio site 
(page 84).
The Play Information screen appears. The MCX-2000 
accesses the specified Internet radio site and starts 
receiving its radio stream. Use the skip forward or 
backward button (
b
/
a
) on the remote control to select 
the next or previous radio station from the above site list.
The Submenu menu commands in the Play Information 
screen for the Internet radio:
Playback: Provides the same tuning and playback control 
functions as available on the remote control. So, you can 
control these functions using the cursor controller on the front 
panel or from a PS/2 keyboard (only with cursor and enter 
keys). On-screen buttons shown in gray provide no function for 
Internet radio control; the same buttons on the remote control 
don’t work either.
Save to Preset: Registers the current radio station to the 
Presets list in two steps (page 59).
Broadcast: Streams a radio program currently being 
received on the MCX-2000 to MusicCAST clients specified in 
a dialog box (page 89).
Recall Play: Makes the MCX-2000 start ‘continued’ 
playback of a song currently playing on a client specified in a 
dialog box (page 90).
Using the Presets List
The Presets list is where you can store up to 100 radio 
stations in 10 groups (up to 10 stations per group). 
Once you’ve registered your favorite stations in the Play 
Information screen, you can select and tune in to them right 
away or manage the list by editing each group and station 
name. In addition, you can use the Presets list to register 
available FM stations through an auto scanning process for 
your own FM Presets list.
n The timer playback feature lets you start playing a specific radio 
station at a specific time (page 97). If you want to use this feature, first 
register that radio station in the Presets list.
Registering a Radio Station to the Presets List
Regardless of the radio type, you can register your favorite 
radio stations to the Presets list directly from each radio’s 
Play Information screen. First, open the Play Information 
screen with a radio station you want to register, following the 
procedure explained in each radio section.
n When you want to quickly register a number of FM stations, use the
