My NPR button on the front of the Livio Radio controls the favorite Stations Menu. When you press it, it will take you to the Favorites stations list.

The My Stuff menu allows you to take personalized control of your NPR. You will need to register your NPR by Livio Radio first. Click here if you have not yet done this. After you register your radio you will have three options on the Reciva Page.

My Stations - equivalent to My Favorites - a seemingly unlimited list of favorite stations which you can add from the Reciva database for quick access. Click the "add to My Stations" link which is shown for every station. Note that for radios with appropriate firmware, pressing the Reply button will add the currently playing station to the My Stations list.

My Streams - Your own personal database. Station stream urls which you can add independently of the official database streams. More information available here

  • My Streams enables the user to add streams to their radio which either don't appear on the Reciva database, are alternate streams to the ones carried by Reciva (ie a different format, higher or lower bitrate etc) or are more up to date 'working' streams when the Reciva database has become out of date for a specific station. The use of My Streams means that you are not reliant on the Reciva database and if you find a station that is not listed or isn't working, you can locate the streaming address, add it to My Streams and listen to it on the radio in a matter of minutes. This enables you to control what you want to listen to, when you want to listen to it. To add your own Streams please click here for our tutorial. 

My Podcasts - podcast urls which you can add yourself. Usually requires the xml, php or the rss address. This is usually provided by the podcaster. To add your own Podcast please click here for our tutorial.

My Pandora - This is the area where you can access the Pandora Music service on your NPR by Livio Radio. You will need to setup an account with Pandora first. Click here for our tutorial.
