having to transfer the photos to your computer first. See the ARCHOS on-line store to purchase this micro USB-B to USB-A host cable. * Some standard USB devices may not function if they consume too much power. 21.2. Cinema Plug-in The out-of-box video playback capability of the ARCHOS is about the best on the market. However, it does not come with MPEG-2 video playback capabilities. You can purchase a software plug-in from the ARCHOS on-line store which will allow your ARCHOS to play these files. This allows your device to play VOB, TS, PS video streams as well as AC3 audio. 21.3. Mini-HDMI to Standard-HDMI male/male cable This Audio/Video cable plugs into the ARCHOS to allow it to play video out to a television. Use the Switch to TV widget (go here to install the widget if it is not already on one of the home screens) to switch from watching on the built-in screen to watching on a television. You can also use the menu button to see the TV switch option. Before you switch to the TV, make sure you have switched your television to the correct video input, often this is done with the A/V select button of your TV's remote control. 21.3.1. Screen as Touchpad Once the screen image is displayed, use the screen of the ARCHOS as a track pad to move the cursor around the screen of your television. Be sure to orient the device as shown below in order to use the correct touch zones of the screen. 22. Technical Support information Still need help after reading though this entire manual? OK, then contact tech support by first registering your product (if you haven't already done so) and then enter your user account and go to the support section where you can fill in a web form with your question (it is easier to do on a regular computer). We'll make our best effort to get back to you within two business days with your answer. Also, see the frequently asked questions section at www.archos.com/faq.
