I have some Internet Radio / Presets / http://www.radiofeeds.co.uk/b2.asp , these were set up a long time ago and can still be editted on the front panel.

The WebUI / Presets pane is empty.
All my attempts to fill (spare) presets from WebUI / vTuner / sub-menu options have failed.
If, for example, I have WebUI / vTuner / Radio Swiss Classic selected/playing and click on the ellipsis, then the popup is greyed out, see attached image.

Is it possible to reset the Internet Radio / Presets sub-system, even it means editting the source b2.tar.gz ?

Hi Steve,

I would try a software update and/or reprogramming the SD Card - see this page - SD Card Image. If repro'ing the SD Card is beyond you please email us on thebre...@gmail.com (the  brennan  b2  (at)  gmail  .  com) requesting a replacement card.

Hi Paul

Thanks for quick reply.
I've accomplished a fresh SD Card image, set up Wi-Fi and then loaded 11th March software update (via USB, as I've replaced/added my own favicon).

Unfortunately there is no noticeable change in B2 behaviour!

Hi Paul

Here's a little more detail...

After the above I could play SCALA by using the front panel preset; so B2 had remembered its address.

When I followed Vinnies guide http://www.radiofeeds.co.uk/b2.asp

    Using the remote control:

    Faster method:
    1. Ensure you are in Radio mode. Press the Radio button if you are not.
    2. Press the Find button. Continue to step 3.
    ...
    3. Use the number pad to select the first letter of the station you wish to listen to. Wait a short moment then do the same to select the second letter of the station, etc..
    4. Press the Next button at any time during letter input to show the list of matching stations with the letters you have inputted so far.
    5. Press the Up/Down buttons to select a station from the list the press OK to play the stream.

I entered "Radio", "Find", "s", "c", "a" "Next" - there's a Yorkshire station, but no SCALA!

Settings->Radio Update

I entered "Radio", "Find", "s", "c", "a" "Next" - there's the Yorkshire station, and SCALA!

So I suspect the B2 has stored some data ro do with presets, somewhere, but not on the SD Card.

Hi Paul

A second more detail...

When looking at NewAgePensioner "Can't copy SD music" query https://groups.google.com/d/msg/brennanb2/qFQ60U42vrY/G9ubYiP0CAAJ I thought I'd try an experiment with Use SD.

My B2 reponse to  Settings->Maintenance->Use SD   was a momentary flicker on the OLED Display "Preparing SD" followed by about two seconds of "Failed", prior to Clock display.

This was replicated with a second SD Card.

Looks like there's an SD Card interface failure.

At the moment the B2 plays CDs, Internet Radio, NAS so I'm inclined to live without WebUI Presets, until...

Hi Paul,

I've now got WebUI Presets working.

The last task was to replace all presets 0-9 with "vTuner" stations. I did change preset 0 to SCALA from "radiofeeds" - all Okay.

WebUI preset popup is now functional, not greyed out.

My B2 response to  Settings->Maintenance->Use SD   is (still) a momentary flicker on the OLED Display "Preparing SD" followed by about two seconds of "Failed", prior to Clock display. As above, I'll live with this.

Thread can be closed.
