Peter: As I say, I sent you a copy of the Braile Sense Plus manual in text form. Reading it may help. But in a nutshell:
Bring up the web browser. Do a Chord-U (Space-U) and load in the address of the radio station. It will begin playing. You will be in the Media Player. While the station is playing, hit Chord-S (that is, Space-S). You will be in a dialogue box to save the file. By default, the file will have the name "playlist.m3u". If you haven't navigated anywhere else with the media Player, by default, the playlist when you save it will be in the "media" folder on the flashdisk. When you hhit Space-B, you will by default probably see two folders -- "record" and "radio". These are used to record programs from the radio or from the microphone, respectively. At this point, if you tab (space 4-5) over to the Confirm button, you will save the playlist in the Media folder. When you hit Enter-O to open the file dialogue to play the file, you can go up and down the list to find your playlist. Be sure to keep the .M3U extension. What I did was go in with the File Manager under the Media folder and create an "Internet Streams" folder. Thus, when I go to save a playlist and hid Space-B to see the file path, I will find the Internet Streams folder; I hit ENTER on it and *then* save the playlist so that all my radio streams are under the Internet Streams folder. >From then on, you just run the Media Player and do a ENTER-O and if you don't see the playlist file, hit Space-1-2 and look at the file path, hitting ENTER to go down a folder level and backspace to go up a folder until you get the right folder and then you can see all your playlists. As I say, by default, playlists will be stored in the Media folder and you should be able to see them just by hitting either ENTER-O or ENTER-O followed by Space-1-2.
