Advanced Preferences (DCR)

In addition to 'Setting Internet radio preferences', 'Setting software update
preferences', and 'Showing/hiding the Music Services tab', you can also change your
wireless channel, and line-in encoding preferences.
Selecting different wireless channel (DCR)
The Sonos Digital Music System selects the optimal radio frequency channel during
setup. However, if you have other wireless devices using this channel, you may want to
switch the Sonos Digital Music System to another channel to avoid conflicts, as
conflicts may cause audio drop-outs.
From the Sonos menu, select Preferences.
1.
Select the Advanced tab.
2.
Select another wireless channel from the Wireless Channel list.
3.
It may take several seconds for the switch to take effect. If you have music playing, a
short music dropout will occur during the wireless channel change.
Line-In encoding (DCR)
If you have line-in music sources attached to a ZonePlayer, line-in encoding determines
how the Sonos Digital Music System will encode the data coming in from these
sources. Compressed encoding is the high-quality system default. For the highest
quality sound you can select Uncompressed encoding (this selection requires more
network resources than compressed audio).
From the Sonos menu, select Preferences.
1.
Select the Advanced tab.
2.
Select Compressed or Uncompressed from the Line-in Encoding list, When
3.
Compressed is selected, you will notice a slight delay before the music starts to
play.
