3. Converting Video Files Using JetAudio VX
quentlyAsked Questions) and beginner’s guide for our products. Users are strongly encouraged to
check out our website for further information regarding product usages and software upgrades and
patches. For individual inquiries, please contact us on-line as we will try to help you as best we can.
1.Install and then run JetAudio VX.
I cannot turn on the player.
Charge the battery fully in case the battery charge has been drained. If the battery is weak it may
take a few seconds to power on. If the player does not respond at all, first disconnect all USB and
power cables, and then press the RESETbutton located at the bottom of the player. RESETbutton
simply powers off the player and does not affect the player in any other way.
Buttons do not respond.
Check if the power switch is set to HOLD
The player is on but there is no sound.
Check if the volume is set to 0
2.Click “Convert Video” on the top to convert the video file.
Check if the player has any music file stored in its disk. Damaged music files may not play or play
improperly. Check the connection of the earphones to the D2. Loose or blocked connection can
cause inadequate contact between earphone jack and the D2.
3.From the Convert Video window, click “Add File” to select the files to convert.
The battery life is shorter when I use external memory
D2 requires more power to read and play back/record files from an external memory card,
So, battery life will be shorter when using external memory compared to using the internal memory.
Album image is not displayed in Music Mode
In order display album image, the image has to be stored in the ID3 tag of the music file. You can
edit the ID3 tags using jetAudio.
4.Check the selected video files in the list.
Video won’t play.
All video files must be converted using jetAudio VX.Any other video files are not supported by D2.
FM Radio does not work.
5.After checking the target folder location to save the converted files and other settings, click on “Start”
to start the video conversion process.
D2 does not have a separate antenna. Instead it uses earphone wire to receive FM Radio signals.
Stretching the wires may enhance the reception quality. FM radio reception may be poor at locations
where FM radio transmissions are shielded. If FM radio does not work where reception should be
possible, please contact our service center (Note that reception quality of D2 may differ from other
FM radio receivers.)
- Movie files that have not been converted by jetAudio VX will not play in COWON D2.
