Annex 2 - Philips TV Slideshow Format with background music
Notes:
- The latest version of this document can be found on the Philips support website (www.philips.com/support).
Use the type number of your TV (42PF9830/10) to find this documentation and other related files.
- Philips can’t be held responsible for any problems that may occur as a result of the content in this document. Errors reported to
Philips will be adapted and published on the Philips support website as soon as possible.
Introduction
This document explains how to make a Philips slideshow file with background audio.
Be aware that the content of this document is addressing technical or software skilled users.
To start the slideshow open the slideshow file in the Multimedia browser of your TV.
& Press the = key on the remote control after having inserted a memory card or USB device and switched on the TV.
é Go to where you stored the slideshow file (.alb) on your portable memory.
“ Select the slideshow file and press the OK key to start the slide show.
‘ To stop a slide show, press the ‡ key.
General Rules
• The slideshow will use plain ASCII XML syntax to allow the creation and editing of the slideshow files using simple
tools.
• All references to network content must be based on the global address of the content.
• Content on a Portable Memory (PM) doesn't have a global address; as a result content from a PM can never be
referenced from a slideshow not stored on the PM itself.
• To maintain portability, a slideshow stored on a PM should ONLY reference content on the same PM. Referencing
global addresses can result in inconsistencies if the PM is used on a non-networked CE device. The latter is however
not forbidden, it is only a recommendation.
• It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM content are based on a relative path starting from the directory where the
slideshow is stored. This path includes the device or drive name of the PM.
An absolute path to content will also be supported.
- relative path: pictures\test1.jpg, tamper.jpg, ..\new\bird.jpg, …
- absolute path: USB1:\pictures1\foo_bar.jpg, C:\f1.jpg, \organization.jpg, …
General Format
The format and syntax below will be used to create the slideshow file (simple ascii text) with the extension .alb (.ALB)
Examples: slshow1.alb, summer_holiday_2004.ALB, test.alb, …
The following syntax should be used to create the text file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-885h9-1" ?>
<philips-slideshow version="1.0" >
<title>Title of the slideshow</title>
<audio>audio_url</audio>

Annex 3 - Philips TV - Portable Memory and USB
Notes:
- The latest version of this document can be found on the Philips support website (www.philips.com/support).
- The software of your TV is upgradeable. If you have problems first check if you have the latest software installed on your TV. The latest
software, together with instructions, can be found on the Philips support website.
Use the type number of your TV (42PF9830/10) to find this documentation and other related files.
- Philips can’t be held responsible neither for any errors in the content of this document nor for any problems as a result of the content in this
document. Errors reported to Philips will be adapted and published on the Philips support website as soon as possible.
Digital Content Issues
• See the supplied separate Connected Planet guide,Annex 5 : Supported file formats.
Portable Memory Issues
• The following memory cards* are supported by the digital media reader:
- CompactFlash Card (Type I & II) (CF)
- IBM Microdrive
- Memory Stick + Memory Stick Pro
- SecureDigital Card (SD)
- SmartMedia Card (SM)
- MultiMedia Card (MMC)
• XD cards are supported through an external XD compatible card reader (not supplied with the TV) connected to the USB
connector. The same holds for other future memory cards.
• Do not apply excessive force when inserting a memory card into the digital media reader. If the memory card doesn’t fit
or isn’t detected by the TV, try to flip over the card and re-insert it.
• When inserting multiple cards at the same time some card combinations will work. It is however recommended to insert
maximum one memory card at the same time.
Digital Camera Issues
If a USB connection between your digital camera and the TV isn’t working, you can try the solutions below to resolve your
problem.
• Make sure your digital camera is switched on and verify if the configuration of your digital camera is correct (see the
manual of your digital camera for more information).
• Some digital cameras allow you to switch off the USB interface. Make sure that the USB interface is switched on before
connecting to the TV.
• Remove the memory card from your digital camera and insert it directly into the digital media reader on the right side of
your TV.
• If you have a digital camera with only internal memory (no removable memory) you can try to copy the content manually
to a memory card or a USB memory device using a personal computer.
• Some digital cameras allow you to switch between PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) or “PC Link” and USB Mass Storage or
“PC Drive”. Make sure that you select USB Mass Storage or “PC Drive” on your digital camera.
• If your camera supports different interface settings be sure to try them one by one or contact the reseller of your camera
to find out the correct setting.
USB Memory Device Issues
• Devices connected to the USB port of your TV must be “Mass Storage Class” compliant. If your device (digital camera.
MP3 player, portable harddisk, …) is not “Mass Storage Class” compliant it will not be detected by the content browser of
the TV.
• The following subsets of the Mass Storage Class specification are supported:
- The implementation of the TV is based on the “Universal Serial Bus Mass Storage Class Specification Overview” (v1.2,
June 23, 2003) including all documents referenced by the document. The document can be found on the USB
standardisation website (www.usb.org).
- Full support of the USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport (bInterfaceProtocol = 50h).
- Full support of SubClass Code = 05h; SFF-8070i spec.
- Full support of SubClass Code = 06h; SCSI transparent command set.
• For large USB memory devices, when you are in the Content Browser, it may take a long time before you can access your
files.
• When using a USB portable harddisk: Due to the high power consumption of the harddisk, it is advised to use the
external power supply of the portable harddisk to guarantee proper working under all conditions.

Annex 2 :Wireless network security
DO
Attention
• Viruses, spyware and other malicious programs can
undermine the security of your network. Use the
appropriate software to protect your PC from
these threats.
Since wireless computer networks use radio
signals, it is possible for other wireless
network devices outside your immediate area
to pick up the wireless signals and either
connect to your network or to capture the
network traffic.
Consult the user manual supplied with your
wireless Access point or wireless Ethernet
bridge for further information.
• Change the default passwords for your network
devices. Leaving these at default makes it easy for
an outsider to gain access.
Note: If you change passwords, write them down and
store them in a safe location.
• Use a router or a Wireless Access Point with
Network Address Translation (NAT) or a firewall.
• In a wireless network, enable the highest WEP key
level that your hardware provides for. Upgrade
your hardware, if possible. If you do not protect
your wireless network, all data from your PC might
be accessible to, for example, your neighbours or
passers-by.
• Switch off SSID broadcast on the Wireless Access
Point.
• Position your Wireless Access Point away from
windows and towards the centre of your home.
This decreases the strenght of the signal outside
your home.
• Some access points can control access based on
the unique MAC address of the network devices
trying to connect to it. See the documentation of
your network devices to retrieve the MAC
addresses.
For the MAC address of your TV, see Annex 3,
Manual Network Installation,View Network
settings, p.13.
DON’T
• Don’t rely on radio transmission range limitations
to secure your network.
• Don’t use WEP/WPA keys and passwords that are
easy to guess.
• Don’t use passphrases to secure your wireless
network as incompatibility with other brands of
wireless network devices may occur.
