No picture.
Completely distorted picture or black/white picture.
Check the video connection. Sometimes a small amount of picture distortion may appear. This is not a malfunction. Clean the disc. Adjust the volume. Check the speaker connections and settings. Make sure that the audio cables are connected and press the SOURCE button to select the correct input source (for example, TV or AUX/DI) to choose the device that you want to hear through the DVD system. Press the SURR. button to select a correct surround sound setting. Make sure that the source you are playing is recorded or broadcast in surround sound (DTS, Dolby Digital, etc.).

Replace the batteries with new ones. Point the remote control directly toward the IR sensor. Check that the batteries are loaded correctly.

No HDMI video output.

Frequently Asked Questions (USB)
Why does it take so long to display the contents on my USB device? This could be due to the large numbers of files (>500 files/folders) or size of the files (>1MB.) There could be other non-supported files in the device that the system is trying to read/display. What if un-supported devices (e.g. USB mouse, keyboards) are plugged into the system? The device may cause the system to be unstable. Remove the unsupported device and unplug the mains cord. Wait for a few minutes before reconnecting the mains cord and power on the system again. What happens when I plug in a USB HDD? HDD is not supported as the large storage capacity makes navigation very difficult. Transfer the music files (mp3) and photos (jpg) into a flash drive. Why does the system fail to detect my USB portable music player? The portable music player may require propriety software that is bundled with our system in order to access the contents (eg. playlist.) What types of file does the system support? We support only FAT16 and FAT32, not NTFS. Why does the file name appear to be different from what was displayed on my computer (e.g. from Good Bye. jpg to Good_B~1.jpg)? The length of the file name is restricted by the file system of the device (FAT16), which only supports eight (8) characters. The computer may be able to display the full file name as the operating system can convert the file system. Is simultaneous USB and Disc playback possible? Not possible due to memory limitation. In addition, a different user interface will be needed in order to function and in order to be simple enough to use. Why cant I rotate the pictures in my device? In order to rotate the pictures in the USB device, a special file in the jpeg picture called EXIF must be embedded. This EXIF information may have not been created by the USB device or removed when you edit or copy the picture from other devices using editing programs. Why cant the system play some of my music files, photos or movies? The music files may not be playable because of different formats and encoding bit-rates. Similarly, the photos may be of low resolution or too high resolution for the system to support. English

Glossary

Analog: Sound that has not been turned into numbers. Analog sound varies, while digital sound has specific numerical values. These jacks send audio through two channels, the left and right. Aspect ratio: The ratio of vertical and horizontal sizes of a displayed image. The horizontal vs. vertical ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, and that of wide-screens is 16:9. AUDIO OUT jacks: Red and white jacks on the back of the unit that send audio to another system (TV, Stereo, etc.). Bit Rate: The amount of data used to hold a given length of music; measured in kilobits per second, or kbps. Or, the speed at which you record. Generally, the higher the bit rate, or the higher the recording speed, the better the sound quality. However, higher bit rates use more space on a disc. Chapter: Sections of a picture or a music piece on a DVD that are smaller than titles. A title is composed of several chapters. Each chapter is assigned a chapter number enabling you to locate the chapter you want. Disc menu: A screen display prepared for allowing a selection of images, sounds, subtitles, multi-angles, etc to be recorded on a DVD. DivX: The DivX code is a patent-pending, MPEG-4 based video compression technology, developed by DivXNetworks, Inc., that can shrink digital video to sizes small enough to be transported over the internet, while maintaining high visual quality. Dolby Digital: A surround sound system developed by Dolby Laboratories containing up to six channels of digital audio (front left and right, surround left and right, center and subwoofer). Dolby Surround Pro Logic II: It is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material, provides a convincing three dimensional sound field on conventional stereo music recordings and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.) DTS: Digital Theater Systems. This is a surround sound system, but it is different from the Dolby Digital. The formats were developed by different companies. HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a high-speed digital interface that can transmit uncompressed high definition video and digital multichannel audio. It delivers perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise. HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI. As required by the HDMI standard, connecting to HDMI or DVI products without HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) will result in no Video or Audio output. HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a specification that provides a secure transmission of digital contents between different devices (to prevent unauthorized copyright). JPEG: A very common digital still picture format. A still picture data compression system proposed by the Joint Photographic Expert Group, which features a small decrease in image quality in spite of its high compression ratio. English

Glossary (continued)

MP3: A file format with a sound data compression system. MP3 is the abbreviation of Motion Picture Experts Group 1 (or MPEG-1) Audio Layer3. By using the MP3 format, one CD-R or CD-RW can contain about 10 times more data than a regular CD. Multichannel: DVDs are formatted to have each sound track constitute one sound field. Multichannel refers to a structure of sound tracks having three or more channels. Parental control: Limits Disc play according to the age of the users or the limitation level in each country. The limitation varies from disc to disc; when it is activated, playback will be prohibited if the softwares level is higher than the user-set level. Playback control (PBC): Refers to the signal recorded on video CDs or SVCDs for controlling playback. By using menu screens recorded on a Video CD or SVCD that supports PBC, you can enjoy interactive playback and searching. Progressive Scan: The progressive scan displays twice the number of frames per second than in an ordinary TV system. It offers higher picture resolution and quality. Region code: A system allowing discs to be played only in the region designated. This unit will only play discs that have compatible region codes. You can find the region code of your unit by looking at the product label. Some discs are compatible with more than one region (or ALL regions.) Surround: A system for creating realistic three dimensional sound fields full of realism by arranging multiple speakers around the listener. Title: The longest section of a movie or music feature on DVD. Each title is assigned a title number, enabling you to locate the title you want. VIDEO OUT jack: Yellow jack on the back of the DVD system that sends the DVD picture video to a TV. English
