So, What Does it Do?
1 Getting Started
WELL, FIRST OF ALL try to imagine what you could do with
20GB of storage space...
The Rio supports popular audio formats, including WMA
(up to 192 kbps) and MP3 (up to 320 kbps). Plus you can
view and sort your music using ID3 and WMA tags.
That’s right, 20 gigabytes of your favorite music.
400 albums.*
The CD-ROM includes USB drivers for Windows (98, ME,
2000 or XP) and Mac OS (9.0.4 or higher), along with
RealJukebox and iTunes to help you manage your music.
5,000 songs.*
All in the palm of your hand.
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s get started...
Just connect the Rio to your computer’s USB port,
download your music to the player and you’re on your way.
The Rio features a large, backlit graphic LCD display so
you can easily navigate your way through your massive
song list by artist, album or song title.
You can even use the built in Rio DJ to hear a 60-minute
sampling of your favorite songs, a playlist of just the
newest songs on the player, the most/least played songs,
only songs from your favorite decade, and much more.
Rather listen to the radio? No problem. An FM tuner is
built in, with up to eight presets.
Need long battery life? Again, not to worry. The lithium-
ion rechargeable battery lasts at least 10 hours per
charge at 50% volume.
How Much Music?
The example given is for 128 kbps sampling; see page 14
for player capacity at various sampling rates.

Downloading Music from
the Internet
2 Loading Music
You can acquire digital music in MP3 or WMA format in two
ways:
1 Downloading from the Internet
2 Encoding/ripping songs from your personal CD collection.
Note: If you already have digital music files stored on your
hard drive, feel free to skip to pages 15-16, which demon-
strate how to manage your music files and download them to
the player.
Downloading Music from the Internet
There are thousands of Web sites that provide digital audio
content. Here are a few to get you started:
Simply point your favorite web browser to one of these sites,
follow the instructions on the site, and download the music
to your computer.
Visit Riohome.com
to download FREE music, or try the pay per track
service to purchase tracks from your favorite
artists.

Encoding (“Ripping”) Your CDs
Encoding a CD with RealJukebox
1 Insert an audio CD in your PC’s CD-ROM drive.
• If Auto-Record is enabled (under “Tools > Preferences >
General”), you will see a dialog box asking if you wish to
record the CD. If you select “Yes,” the RealJukebox
software will automatically begin encoding each song on
the CD.
• If Auto-Record is not enabled, continue with step 2.
2 In a few moments, the CD automatically opens in Real-
Jukebox showing the names of each track on the disc.
3 Click the check box next to each track you wish to encode,
or click “Check All” to encode the entire disc.
4 Press the red “Record” button to start encoding.
• Songs will automatically play while they are encoding.
Mega Storage
The Rio Riot can hold over 150 complete
albums at the highest possible sample rate!
Setting the Sample Rate
The default sample rate for RealJukebox is 128 kbps, which is
the minimum file size for “Near CD” quality, but you can
change it based on the size of your music collection and
desired sound quality. For example...
Encoding a CD with iTunes
1 Insert an audio CD in your Mac’s CD-ROM drive.
2 In a few moments, the CD automatically opens in iTunes
showing the names of each track.
3 Select the check box next to each track you wish to
encode (by default, all tracks are checked).
4 Click the “Import” button at the top left of the iTunes
window. The checked tracks will be converted to MP3
format.
• If you have 300 or more CDs to rip, make sure you sample
at 160 kbps or lower to allow room on the player and still
retain “Near CD” quality.
• If you have 150 or fewer CDs, go ahead and encode at a
higher sample rate (256-320 kbps)—you’ve got the space,
you might as well use it!
• For WMA fans, you can get nearly twice the compression
for each sample rate at virtually the same sound quality.

Managing Your Music Files
If you have MP3 and WMA files in various folders on your
hard drive, the music management software can seek them
out and gather them into one unified list. You can then use
the software to:
Managing Music with iTunes
1 The iTunes software will automatically locate all music files
during the installation process. To add songs manually,
click “File>Add to Library”, and then browse to the folder
and files you wish to add.

2 All tracks are listed in the main window. You can sort the
list by Song, Time, Artist, Album, Genre by clicking on the

Album, Genre, CD Track #,
Length, Format, Quality or

FAQs
7 Getting Help
How do you load music to the Rio?
Rio selects a seed number and then enters a list of
predetermined random numbers to play music in a
seemingly random order. If the same seed is picked, the
Rio may play songs in the same order.
• The Rio interfaces with your computer through the USB
port. You can get digital audio from numerous Internet
sites or encode your own digital audio tracks from your
audio CDs using the CD-ROM drive on your computer. Use
the software included with the Rio to get audio from the
Internet, encode tracks from your audio CDs, or download
tracks to your Rio.
What does the Rio Hold feature do?
• The Hold feature on the Rio locks all buttons and
controls except the Power switch. This is useful at times
when the Rio may be bumped or jostled. For example,
when exercising.
Can I use the Rio with Windows 95? I have the USB
supplement pack.
What are the differences between MP3 and WMA?
• If you use the WMA format instead of the MP3 format,
you can have comparable quality at about one half the
size. Since WMA offers “CD quality” at a smaller file size
than MP3, it enables you to store more music on your
PC or on your portable player. WMA files are exclusive
to the PC.
• No. The Rio USB devices can only be used with Windows
98, Windows ME, Windows 2000 or Windows XP operat-
ing systems, or Mac OS 9.0.4 or later. The Rio requires a
newer standard of USB that is not available in Windows 95,
even with the USB supplement pack.
Where is the serial number located on the Rio?
• The serial number is on the back of the Rio.
How can I get the best sound quality when encoding
from a CD?
The Rio is connected to the USB, why doesn’t the com-
puter recognize it?
• First, make sure the Rio RealJukebox software is running
and check to make sure the USB cable is fully connected to
both the Rio and to the computer. Then, turn the Rio off
and back on.
• If you use a significant amount of your computer
system’s resources with other applications, encoding
songs from a CD may result in poor quality recordings. If
the song(s) you encode contain abnormalities, such as
pops or skips, close down other applications which are
running and encode those songs again. The condition of
the audio CD—scratches and so on—may effect the
quality of the recording as well.
Is the Random menu function truly random?
• No. The Random function uses an algorithm called
pseudo-random which is common to all computers. The
