DIGITAL output of MP3/WMA data is done not as MP3/WMA data, but as PCM data.
Naming folders and files
Single-byte characters between A and Z, single-byte numerals between 0 and 9, and the single-byte underscore(_) can be displayed. Ensure
that the extension log is attached to all file names.
•
Never add the wrong extension log to any files, the equipment will assume that they can be played back, and this will produce loud noises

About HDMI
HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is used to protect digital
content transmitted and received.
HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced or high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel surround-sound audio,
HDMI features include uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 5 gigabytes per second, one connector (instead of several
cables and connectors), and communication between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
Notes:
•
•
Both PCM and Bitstream Audio out is available when the sample frequency is set to 48 kHz in HDMI connection.
If Audio setup is set to bitstream and your TV does not support Bitstream Audio out in HDMI connection, audio sound may not be output-
ted or distorted.
•
When the no sound or noisy sound are outputted with HDMI connection, set the Audio option [Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG] in SETUP menu
to PCM or Off.
•
•
•
•
If there is noise or lines on the screen, please check the HDMI cable.
Not all HDCP-compatible DVI devices will work with this unit.
If your HDMI TV does not support HDCP, the blue screen appears on the screen.
If the abnormal picture appears on the TV screen, turn off the unit and then turn the unit on again.
