Why does it take so long to display the 
contents on my USB device?
–  This could be due to the large numbers 
of fi les (>500 fi les/folders) or size of the 
fi les (>1MB).
–  There could be other non-supported fi les 
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 
diffi cult.  Transfer the music fi les (mp3) 
and photos (jpg) into a fl ash 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 fi le does the system  
support?
–  We support only FAT16 and FAT32, not 
NTFS.Why does the fi le 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 fi le name is restricted 
by the fi le system of the device (FAT16), 
which only supports eight (8) characters.
–  The computer may be able to display the 
full fi le name as the operating system can 
convert the fi le 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 can’t I rotate the pictures in my 
device?
–  In order to rotate the pictures in the 
USB device, a “special” fi le 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 programmes.
Why can’t the system play some of my 
music fi les, photos or movies?
–  The music fi les 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.
Frequently Asked Questions (USB)

English
Glossary
Analogue: Sound that has not been turned 
into numbers. Analogue sound varies, while 
digital sound has specifi c numerical values. 
These sockets 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 Sockets: Red and white 
sockets 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, centre and 
subwoofer).Dolby Surround Pro Logic II: It is an 
improved matrix decoding technology that 
provides better spatiality and directionality 
on Dolby Surround programme material, 
provides a convincing three dimensional 
sound fi eld 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 specifi cally 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 Theatre Systems. This is a 
surround sound system, but it is different 
from the Dolby Digital.  The formats were 
developed by different companies.
HDMI:  High-Defi nition Multimedia 
Interface (HDMI) is a high-speed digital 
interface that can transmit uncompressed 
high defi nition video and digital multi-channel 
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 specifi cation that provides a 
secure transmission of digital contents 
between different devices (to prevent 
unauthorised 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.
MP3: A fi le 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 fi eld.
Multichannel refers to a structure of sound 
tracks having three or more channels.
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 fi nd the region code 
of your unit by looking at the product label. 
Some discs are compatible with more than 
one region (or ALL regions).
