Before you can use your CXN for Radio/Streaming you must have the

In many cases the broadband modem, router and wireless access point will be 
a single combined unit supplied by your Internet Service Provider or bought 
from a computer store.

other connection type, see later Settings section.

Plug one end of a network cable (Category 5/5E straight through Ethernet

Note: Only connect the LAN port of the player to an Ethernet port that 
supports 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. Connecting to any other ports or jacks, 
such as a phone jack, can damage the unit

The CXN should automatically connect to your network as below via DHCP; 
this means it will be given an IP address by your router automatically.

The CXN is able to receive and play back media from several distinct types of 
source. Here we have attempted to give an overview of the various types of 
service available and the terminology you may encounter.

These are ‘radio’ stations broadcast over the internet. Currently the 
StreamMagic range can access about 20,000 internet radio stations all sorted 
by us into Location, Language and Genre. The list of available stations is 
constantly maintained and automatically updated to your unit via the internet.

also be able to browse the stations and set presets on your units from your 
PC.

You can also add stations to your units that are currently not in the Stream 
Magic's  Radio database, suggest new stations to us and more. There are also 
links and help for setting up third-party Streaming Services from a wide variety 
of other suppliers. Other Stream Magic features will be launched in the future, 
check the website from time to time to see the latest developments.

Streaming Services are similar to Internet Radio but come from other suppliers 
and often have an element of interaction with the user. Because Streaming 
Services generally allow the user some choice over the content they listen to, 
[OL`HYLHSZVSPJLUZLKKPɈLYLU[S`[VP9HKPVI`[OLT\ZPJJVTWHUPLZHUKVM[LU
each service only has arrangements in certain countries and may also charge 
a subscription for membership.

Examples of such services are Aupeo!, Pandora, Rhapsody, SIRIUS/XM, 
Live365 and others. All allow some control of the content from 'play me 
something that sounds like U2' to the ability to select and play whole albums 
VM`V\YJOVPJL:VTLHSZVVɈLY[OLHIPSP[`[VKV^USVHKJVU[LU[MVY\ZLVɈSPUL
as well. 

The CXN supports many of these services, navigate to Streaming Services on 
the unit for a list or even better check out our website at www.stream-magic.
com for more details of which services are available in your area, what they 
do and how to sign up. These services come from third parties and although 
we support connections to them they do not come from us and we are not 
responsible for their service in any way. Your account will be with the service, 
we are merely acting as a website to make the connection simpler and more 
convenient plus we support the correct software on our unit to allow playback 
and browsing of their content.

The CXN supports a wide range of compressed formats; MP3, AAC, WMA 
and Ogg Vorbis CODEC types are all supported,  plus for true audiophile use 
P[HSZVZ\WWVY[ZLP[OLY\UJVTWYLZZLK7*4PUH>(=JVU[HPULYVYSVZZSLZZS`
compressed FLAC, both can contain from 16-bits/44.1kHz from CDs right up 
to 24-bit/192kHz for better than CD quality from suitable download sites.

Note: For this to work your server will also need to support the CODEC you 
wish to play as some have limitations and may not serve FLAC for instance. 
Always check that the server you wish to use also supports your favoured 
CODECs.

Also for lossless/uncompressed formats both the server and network 
connection will need to sustain the high bitrate necessary. 

Note: It is not recommended to use Wi-Fi connections for content above 
24bits, 96kHz if lossless/uncompressed.

The CXN also supports USB Media from USB Flash-disks or USB hard-drives 
and has 3 USB 2.0 ports for this purpose. Here the CXN simply browses 
the folders present on the media attached and displays them. Only content 
that the CXN can play will be shown. This feature is provided for convenient 
access to temporary storage devices.

It is however highly recommended that UPnP is used for continued use of 
stored media as the UPnP system is able to support album art, sophisticated

Podcasts are archived audio recordings downloadable over the internet. Often 
podcasts are recordings of previous live broadcasts or episodic content.

The CXN supports various third party podcast services, navigate to Podcasts 
on the unit for the list available in your area. In addition the CXN supports your
