between the Music Center
and the Music Stations for
effective streaming?
Q

Do I need a computer and
home network to use the
WACS700?
Q
:
Would my neighbours be
able to access the music
stored on my Music Center if
they also have the Philips
Music Station?
A
:
Yes.The maximum distance of Wi-Fi transmission for the system is 250m 
measured in open space. However in a home environment there are inevitable
solid obstacles such as walls and doors, which may reduce the effective 
transmission distance significantly to approximately 50-100m.Try re-position the
sets if you experience transmission problems.
A
:

You can convert your CDs into MP3s on the Music Center, and stream the music
to your Music Stations without any computer or home networking structure.
A

recognized by the Music Center during the installation process.

"ripping" and what functions

progress?
Q
:
Do I need to immediately
update the CDDB database
stored in the Music Center
straight after bringing it home?
Q
:
Does Philips provide
CDDB database updates?
A
:
Ripping is the process by which a CD track is converted into compressed MP3
format which is then stored on the Music Center's internal hard disk for playback
and music streaming. In the Music Center "ripping" takes two steps: first, it reads
the CD content and store it temporarily on the hard disk; second, it converts this
temporary CD content into the MP3 format - a process called "background
encoding". It takes 1 hour to convert 1 hour of CD music. Make sure you do not
choose the "Eco Standby" mode or unplug your Music Center from the electrical
socket.
A
:
No.There is already a massive CD-tracks database pre-stored in the Music
Center, which should match most of the CDs released within the last six months.
A
:
Yes.We provide quarterly updates of the CDDB database through our website
at http://www.philips.com/support. Simply download the file, burn it on a CD-ROM
and follow the step by step procedure to complete the update.
