A quick check of the nearest Reciva radio confirms that it does not appear to have a search function in the UPnP menu.

Even if this particular UPnP server does not do everything that would be needed there might be an approach to make it work. At the radio, the user would lose the current menu navigation mechanism - since it would be necessary to start from the UPnP menus on the radio. I am not near a Reciva radio at the moment ... does it present a search option when accessing UPnP? My memory says it does not - which would make one of the operations cumbersome.
