I have a ton of MP3's on my system but when I transfer them to the reciver, most show up as (non) then the artist. Why wont they show up as Artist?
Likely reason is that your tags are incomplete. Make sure that you fill out the ID3V2 tags for every file before uploading them.
Note: You said "receiver", but from context I assume you're actually talking about a Rio Central.

Im going to run some cat-5 to the reciever, but it will take a few weeks to get around to it.
Remember that you also need a supported usb-to-ethernet adapter.

Does anyone have a working image of the latests software with CDDB
Unfortunately, no. What's up at Rioaudio.com is all there is. When you get the ethernet adapter working, in theory, this should not be needed anyway, so I'd concentrate on that if I were you.

is there a place anyone knows of that I can get a new shell for this unit?

where can I buy a remote control for this thing?
The only place I can think of would be Rio itself, but I don't believe they offer those things for separate sale. Call them and ask. A universal remote would work for the Rio Central, if you could program the proper codes. For example, if you had a programmable remote (Pronto, JP1, etc.) and could find someone who offered a pre-made code set that worked.
Hmmm. Garage sale, huh? No remote, you say? What's the unit's serial number?
