How does the Streamline2 work?
The Streamline2 joins your computer network in the same way that a computer or other networked device would.
Playing music from a network
Once connected to your network, the Streamline libraries present on your network, catalogue the music found in those libraries, and present the library content in a choice of easily searchable categories.
The n-remote
The n-remote communicates with the Streamline and displays the status of the Streamline2, whether you are browsing a music library or changing settings. From the comfort of your chair you can choose a category to search your music, browse that category, and then play your selection.

Music libraries
Audophile systems have progressed over the years from shelves of fragile vinyl records or magnetic tape to racks of compact discs, played without any physical contact.
Perfect sound forever? Perhaps, but for a serious audiophile a large collection of CDs still occupies a large space in a room, usually in the listening room itself. Cataloguing the CDs can be a chore and remembering which album your favourite tracks are on can be quite a challenge in a large collection of CDs.
The Cyrus Streamline hardware to take the music content from your discs and store the entire

Setting up a network music library
Choosing a file format for your library
Hard drive size was once a limitation for storage of a high quality, uncompressed music library. This is no longer the case as high capacity hard-drives are now affordable, and multiple drives are also an option.
Lossless formats are also now available, offering the quality of uncompressed files, but with a useful saving of around 40% of the file size.
If you already have an existing library of uncompressed WAV or AIFF files ripped from CD, then this will deliver the highest quality when played through the Streamline
If you have an existing library that includes MP3, WMA, AAC or other compressed format files, you may want to consider creating a new library of uncompressed or lossless files from your CD collection, Although the Streamline by these formats to pack the files into a small space removes essential

Mixing formats

The Streamline retain a library of compressed files for portable audio etc., and set up a new library of uncompressed or lossless music for the Streamline2.
Buying music on-line
There are currently few sources on-line for the purchase of high quality uncompressed or lossless files. To achieve the best quality for your music library, rip your music from CD to uncompressed or lossless files.

Troubleshooting
1: The Streamline2 will not join a cabled network
If the Streamline working computer, but the network is not found by the Streamline2:
Temporarily disconnect the ethernet cable from the computer and •
connect it to the Streamline
If the Streamline that there is a fault with the cabling of the Streamline2 installation.
If the above test proves that the computer will connect to the network, but not the Streamline
Press and hold the •
Select the Setup option.•
Select the Network Settings option.•
Select the DHCP Settings option.•
Confirm that the ‘On’ option is checked under the DHCP heading. If •
not, change the setting to ‘On’ and re-try connecting to the network.
If DHCP is already set on, then it is probable that your network is set for manual assignment of IP addresses, and it will be necessary to assign an IP address to the Streamline2 manually. This should only be attempted if you fully understand manual IP address assignment and have access to a range of free IP addresses that can be assigned to the Streamline2. Refer to the Setup - Network section on page 15 for full instructions to set a manual IP address.
If you suspect that the network is configured for manual assignment of IP addresses, but don’t have the knowledge or information necessary to assign an address manually, enlist the help of an IT Professional.
2: If a wireless network is not visible
If the Streamline list, or if no wireless networks are found:
Check that an aerial is fitted to the wireless network aerial connector •
on the back panel.
Move the Streamline•
network (usually the modem/router).
Re-connect the power and check if your network is found.•
If the Streamline source, there may be inadequate signal strength in the original location. Try setting up the wireless network aerial on the magnetic base and experiment with different positions to improve signal strength, or install an ethernet cable which will always give better results than wireless.
If the wireless network is still not visible when the Streamline close to the wireless source, it may be that the SSID (network name) of your wireless network is hidden. The Streamline2 will not find a wireless network with a hidden SSID, so it will be necessary to re-configure the source of your wireless network (usually the modem/router) so that the SSID is visible. If you are not sure how to make these changes, enlist the help of an IT professional.

The exact procedure to change library sharing will depend on the UPnP server software, but you will generally need to open the ‘options’ or ‘preferences’ section within the UPnP server software, locate the section for ‘Sharing’ and enable sharing for your preference of all devices, or just the Cyrus Streamline
.

4: USB drive navigation problems
When selecting a drive connected to the USB port, the message Unable To Browse is displayed.
This message will be displayed if the format of the connected drive is not compatible with the Streamline2. In this case, the drive should be formatted as FAT16 or FAT32.
NOTE: Re-formatting the drive will erase all data contained on the drive.

Cyrus Streamline2 series User Instructions
5: USB drive slow navigation
Check the size of the drive. A maximum drive size of 500GB is recommended when connected to the USB port to ensure fast navigation. If you prefer to use a larger drive, a NAS drive connected via your computer network is highly recommended.
6: Intermittant drop out (silent passages) when playing from a network
This is most likely to be caused by inadequate network bandwidth. If you are using a wireless network, it is probable that the signal strength
is high enough, but may also be due to other wireless network users with high demands (large downloads etc).
To check signal strength, move the Streamline the wireless network and check performance. If the dropouts stop, then consider a cabled link between the modem/router and the Streamline2.
To check if other network users are restricting the bandwidth, test the Streamline to the network.
at a time when there are no other wireless users connected
2
NOTE: Lossless and uncompressed files demand more network bandwidth than compressed files. If the music only drops out when listening to these files, this may also indicate inadequate network bandwidth.
7: No display
The display may be switched off. Press the ‘red’ button on the n-remote to switch the display on or off.
8: A paired n-remote will not connect to the Streamline
This may happen occasionally and can be cured by performing a full power cycle of the Streamline2 (disconnect mains power and re-connect). Un-pairing and re-pairing the n-remote is not recommended.
9: n-remote unresponsive
This may happen if the internal battery experiences deep discharge. To restore normal operation after re-charging, it may be necessary to reset the n-remote. Use the end of a paper clip or similar to press the reset button through the access hole in the back panel of the n-remote.
