Frequently Asked Questions (USB)  
Why does it take so long to display the  
contents on my USB device?  
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”)?  
This could be due to the large numbers  
of files (>500 files/folders) or size of the  
files (>1MB).  
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.  
There could be other non-supported files  
in the device that this unit is trying to  
read/display.  
What if un-supported devices (e.g. USB  
mouse, keyboards) are plugged into  
this unit?  
The device may cause this unit 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 this unit again.  
Is simultaneous USB and Disc playback  
possible?  
This is 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.  
What happens when I plug in a USB  
HDD?  
Why can’t I rotate the pictures in my  
device?  
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.  
In order to rotate the pictures in the USB  
device, the picture must contain EXIF  
information, stored by most digital cameras.  
This EXIF information may have been  
removed when you edit or copy the picture  
from other devices using editing programs.  
Why does this unit 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). MTP class not supported, only can  
support mass storage class devices.  
Why can’t this unit 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 this unit  
to support.  
What types of file does this unit  
support?  
We support only FAT16 and FAT32, not  
NTFS.
