I. Music Server Software Requirements and Installation

SoundBridge has been developed as a playback client for several different music libraries, for example, Windows Media Player (version 11 or higher), Rhapsody, Musicmatch and iTunes. SoundBridge also plays back WMA and DRM WMA (copy-protected files). These types of files can be purchased online from many providers. (Note: Apple policies forbid SoundBridge from supporting protected AAC files.)

What is "Music Server Software"?

SoundBridge is a network – music – player. This means that it doesn't save music but plays back files that are stored on your computer/music server on your home network. Alternatively, SoundBridge HomeMusic can also play back audio files stored on an SD or MMC card. (SoundBridge can play back Internet radio via a direct Internet connection without a computer having to be connected.) In order to play back music stored on your computer, SoundBridge must receive the music data from software that "serves" the data to SoundBridge. This kind of "music server software" plays back the music on SoundBridge.
The "music server software" also sends title lists and enables search queries in the music library.
Perhaps you already have music server software installed and haven't noticed. Microsoft has developed its own music server software: Windows Media Connect, technology that is now included in the Windows Media Player Version 11 and higher. There is no real standard for music server software and therefore all the currently available programs have different functions. One great advantage to SoundBridge is that all the popular programs are supported by an easy to operate interface. The most popular music server applications are iTunes, Windows Media Connect and Rhapsody. If you would like to use the PlaysForSure music service, you need to use Windows Media Connect. If you would like to play back AAC files, you need to use iTunes combined with the Firefly Media Server, and if you would like to use the Rhapsody music service, you need to use the Rhapsody music server software (check the availability of Real Networks Rhapsody in Europe under www.Rhapsody.com).

Page 7
Note: In order to play back Internet radio from the "Radio Favorites“ list, you don't need music server software since SoundBridge receives the data directly from the Internet.

VII. Internet Radio

You can listen to Internet radio in one of two ways. First, you can listen to SoundBridge’s built­in set of radio stations located in the Internet Radio Library. Your computer does not need to be on - all you need is an active Internet connection on your home network. Second, you can enter a URL of a radio station playlist on the Internet Radio tab of the SoundBridge web page. You can access the SoundBridge web page by entering the IP address of your SoundBridge in a web browser. To do this, open a web browser and type “http://” followed by the IP address of your SoundBridge. Note: to see the IP address of your SoundBridge, go to the menu option Configuration and press [ address.
The easiest way to play Internet radio on SoundBridge is through the Internet Radio Library, where you can access a large and growing number of Internet radio stations, browsable by Name, Genre, Language, and Location. To navigate to the Internet Radio Library, follow these steps:
1. Press [ ]. Navigate down to Library/Config and press [ ].
2. Your available music libraries will be displayed, including the one named Internet Radio.
3. Scroll to the station you want to play and press [
When the station is playing, the Now Playing screen looks similar to this:

Customizing Favorites and Presets for Internet Radio

There are two ways to save Internet radio stations for easy playback.
The first way is to save the station as a Preset. The easiest way for Windows users to save radio stations as presets is to use Roku Radio Snooper. Roku Radio Snooper is an application for Windows that you run while listening to Internet radio streams on your computer. During playback, Snooper will test the stream and if it’s compatible, your SoundBridge allows you to set it as a preset radio station. The Roku Radio Snooper web interface allows you to rename the Internet radio stations and to change their place in the preset list. Note: You can download the latest version of “Roku Radio Snooper” from our web site www.pinnaclesys.com/soundbridge or install it from the installation CD that comes with your SoundBridge.
Whether the station was found using the Roku Radio Snooper, by browsing SoundBridge’s built-in Internet Radio Library, by playing it from music server on your computer, or by entering it manually on the web page, it can be stored in a Preset slot and played back easily via the Play Preset command.
The second way is to mark a station from the built-in Internet Radio Library as a favorite. When a station is marked as a favorite, it appears in the My Favorites list in the Internet Radio library, but does not use up one of the 18 Preset slots.
Note: If a station is saved as a Preset, then it is assumed to also be a “favorite”, and will always appear at the front of the My Favorites list.
20
Page 21
There are several important differences between Presets and My Favorites:
Presets are accessible from any Library, while My Favorites only appear in the
Internet Radio Library.
My Favorites may only contain stations found by browsing the Internet Radio
Library. Presets may contain stations from the built-in library or entered via the web page.
Presets can recall content other than Internet radio stations, like playlists or
selections that you have browsed to from SoundBridge (such as all songs by a particular artist, etc). My Favorites include only Internet radio stations.
When displaying My Favorites, Internet radio station Presets are also included at
the beginning of the list.
Presets can be programmed and played from the preset web page. Presets can
be programmed as discrete commands on a custom remote control. (For more information about customizing your remote for SoundBridge control and a pronto CCF file, please visit the Support section of our web site.)
Save an Internet radio station to My Favorites:
1. From the Internet Radio Library, scroll down to the Browse menu item. Navigate to the station you would like to save.
2. Press [
], then press the [ ] button to display these options:
Play [Station name] Get Station Info Add Station to My Favorites
3. Scroll down to the option Add Station to My Favorites and press [ ]. You will see the message “Station added to your favorites”. Next time you view My Favorites, you will see that station displayed in the list.

Select the option Add Station to My Favorites and press [ ].
Note: Only stations that you have accessed via the browse feature in the Internet Radio
Library can be saved to your Favorites. Stations that are played from a URL manually entered as a Preset cannot be saved to your Favorites.
Save an Internet radio station to your Presets:

] button on the Now Playing screen of an Internet radio station.

Playback Limitations of Internet Radio Streams

SoundBridge currently supports MP3 and WMA Internet radio stations. RealAudio and AACplus stations are not supported at this time. However, stay tuned for additional formats that may be supported in future software releases.
Unfortunately, there are few standards in Internet radio (especially for MP3 stations), and sometimes a station will do something out of the ordinary that will prevent SoundBridge from being able to play it. See our online document at www.rokulabs.com/support/internetradio.php for more information.
23
Page 24

Discovering More Internet Radio Stations

Our online user forums have an active discussion dedicated to helping SoundBridge users find good Internet radio stations in a variety of genres. Visit our Forums (accessible from www.rokulabs.com/support) and look for the discussion topics related to Internet radio stations if you would like to find more stations in a particular genre or would like to suggest a station or offer help to others on this topic.

VIII. Play back music from your SD Card

The build in SD card slot allows you to even play back audio files saved on an SD card. Once an SD card is inserted into the SD card slot, SoundBridge will automatically find this music library.
Navigate to the SD card library and select it. You will then see the Home Menu, where you can begin browsing and playing your music.
To change to a different library, or to play Internet radio, select the Library/Config option located at the bottom of SoundBridge’s Home Menu (accessible by pressing the [ For further information on how to use the remote control while playing back audio files from an
SD card, refer to chapter VI of this manual, “Remote Control Quick Reference”
