The Rotel radios require a UPnP server to stream music from a computer to the system. Unfortunately iTunes is not a UPnP server so if using a Windows PC, Windows Media Player should be configured to monitor your iTunes music library.

• Windows Media Player 11

  Open Windows Media Player and select Tools>Options from the menu bar. Select the Library Tab, then click the Monitor Folders button. Add the folders you want WMP to monitor, including your iTunes Music folder. This will keep WMP in sync with changes in your iTunes library automatically.

  You will also need to set up WMP to share your media with the RDG/RCX unit. Go to Library tab>Media Sharing and Allow the Rotel Gateway. See the Owner's Manual for more information.

• Windows Media Player 12

  Open Windows Media Player and select Organize>Manage Libraries>Music from the menu bar. From the Library Locations window select Add to add the folders you want WMP to monitor, including your iTunes Music folder. This will keep WMP in sync with changes in your iTunes library automatically.

  You will also need to set up WMP to share your media with the RDG/RCX unit. Go to Stream>More streaming options... and Allow the Rotel Gateway. See the Owner's Manual for more information.

If using a Mac, you will need a UPnP program such as EyeConnect to use the Mac as a UPnP server with the Rotel system. Other UPnP servers may work but have not been tested.

Note the Rotel models are optimized for Windows Media Player 11 and 12.
