****************************************************************************** Since the TurtleRadio Server is no longer available, here are instructions to setup TurtleRadio locally. Please note that the info below is offered as a courtesy on an *AS IS* basis and it is not Supported. ******************************************************************************
Enabling local file access of TurtleRadio:
1. Your unit must have 3.2.24 or 3.2.25 Firmware. Earlier Firmware will not support this process.
IMPORTANT WARNING! BEFORE YOU PROCEED: Upgrading Firmware is a very risky procedure where a lot can go wrong. We recommend that you do not proceed, as your unit may not function. We hope that you will not have to find out the hard way that you are better off having a unit that functions without TurtleRadio, than a unit that does not function at all. Please remember that this product is no longer serviceable. Also, if using a NAS Server, do not upgrade Firmware as the NAS Support may not function. You have been warned!
2. Download a copy of the file: radio_tr.txt from:
http://turtlebeach.com/support/index.php?View=download&EntryID=54
3. Save this file to your local machine as a text file and remember where you put it. 4. Next, use a browser to navigate to your AudioTron: http://(your_atron_IP_address)/localtr.asp (e.g. http://192.168.xx.x/localtr.asp)
5. Check the box *Enabled* next to "Use a local file for Turtle radio list".
6. The password is "Godzilla"
7. Click on the *Save* button. 8. You will now need to put the location of your saved text file in the first text box of the 'Configure Shares Manually' page on your AudioTron web browser. http://(your_atron_IP_address)/shares.asp If you have a different share in there, you'll need to move it down to one of the other ones to make room for the text file. Qualify the complete location path, so it would be \\SHARE\FOLDER\radio_tr.txt
9. Click on the "Save Manual Search Settings" button.
10. Reboot your AT (From the rear switch.) During boot, you should see a message that it's using a local TurtleRadio file. BEST OF LUCK! NOTE: The text file "radio_tr.txt" will provide you with 333 TurtleRadio Stations, which should be plenty to choose from. If you had customized your stations, you should use your reliable back up of your own text file with your preferred selections. You may also edit the text and add your own favorites, but you realize that we cannot do this for you. Please read below for more info.
You may also visit the following link compliments of an AudioTron aficionado: http://www.jon00.me.uk/TurtleRadioIntro.shtml
This then gives you access to an on-line TurtleRadio editor. Since it is not easy to modify the XML style file, this makes the process much easier by automatically sorting the listings and providing a compliant file to download. The service is free and you can easily upload your existing file for modification provided the server is on-line.
