Step 3: Playing an Internet radio station on the MediaMVP
Click the Go button on the MediaMVP remote. Click on the Radio button. If you have set up
the directories (the paragraph above), you will see a MyRadio listing. Go to this directory.
In the directory, you will see a list of Internet radio stations you have made links to.
To start playing an Internet radio station, use your remote control to select the station
and then click the Play button.
N
ote: If you click on a radio sta-
tion and the audio does not
start within a few seconds,
the radio station cannot be accessed
by the MediaMVP. One reason for
this is that this station cannot be
accessed directly (it uses redirection
to get to the station). Another reson
might be that the radio station does
not transmit audio in one of the for-
mats MediaMVP can play (currently
MP3 and WMA).
How the Internet radio stations are named, stored and played by the
MediaMVP:
When you are browsing Internet radio stations while in Internet Explorer, and you right click
on a link to an Internet radio station, the MediaMVP application running on the PC makes a
note of the URL the link is pointing to. The MVP Radio Station pop up menu then is run,
allowing you to name the link and also put the link into a category (for example: Jazz), and
then a file is created in the My Radio directory with that name. The file extension is .MVP,
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. MediaMPV will then return to the Radio
menu.
