English Frequently Asked Questions (USB) Why does it take so long to display the contents on my USB device? - This could be due to the large numbers of files (>500 files/folders) or size of the files (>1MB). - There could be other non-supported files in the device that the system is trying to read/display. What if un-supported devices (e.g. USB mouse, keyboards) are plugged into the system? - The device may cause the system 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 the system again. What happens when I plug in a USB HDD? - 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. Why does the system 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). What types of file does the system support? - We support only FAT16 and FAT32, not NTFS. 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")? - 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. Is simultaneous USB and Disc playback possible? - 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. Why can't I rotate the pictures in my device? - In order to rotate the pictures in the USB device, a "special" file in the jpeg picture called EXIF must be embedded. This EXIF information may have not been created by the USB device or removed when you edit or copy the picture from other devices using editing programs. Why can't the system 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 the system to support. 50

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