BDP S370 - Can I search Internet Radio?

[Shortz153]

Hello,

I recently bought the S370 as I kinda wanted a BDP but I mostly wanted to listen to Internet radio in the lounge through my Hi-Fi. The salesman assurred me I could, the jargon on the box confirmed it, so I was less than impressed when everything was pre-defined & no search facility appeared obvious.

Does anyone know if I can "bypass" the existing config to enable a seach of internet radio stations or sites? I am not looking to browse, enter chat rooms or anything other than just listen & Im even ok if its only possible to select one, just as long as its the one that I want. I would rather not have to go out & buy an internet radio as well, because if that was the choice, I wouldve passed on the BDP & gone for the radio - anyone offer any advice on this please?

Many thanks in Advance

Simon

PS3 Media Server (free - but needs to be manually patched and compiled) can play internet radio stations (saved in the web.conf file) and stream them to the BDP-S370 via DLNA. No search feature that I know of though as yet.

Hi Dradel,

Thank you for your reply, I guess the bottom line answer then is no?! I shouldve just bought an internet enabled radio instead as the whole point was not to involve my pc in this operation.

Thanks again
