Using the LitePort player

LitePort allows you to display any JPEG image automatically, without a computer connected. Use your own JPEGs from your digital camera, or con- vert your files, such as PowerPoint or Word files, into JPEGs using LitePort Utility (included on the CD). LitePort Utility allows you to easily generate the highest quality JPEG images possible. (LitePort player is optimized to display images at 960x720 resolution, so for best results, create JPEGs at this resolution). Then transfer the JPEG images from your computer to the pro- jector using a USB mass storage device and your images are ready to be dis- played. You can use the remote control to select which JPEGs to view or you can set up the LitePort player using the LitePort onscreen menu to select display preferences and automatically display and advance your JPEGs. See page 36.

When active, the player can be in one of three modes:

Folder View mode, which shows a thumbnail image representing each folder that contains a valid JPEG. The thumbnail for that folder is the first JPEG alphabetically in that folder. Folders are sorted alphabetically based on the name of the actual directory with no regard to the file sys- tem path to the folder.

File View mode, which shows a thumbnail of the valid JPEGs in that folder.

Full Screen mode, which shows the first JPEG in the selected folder.

The remote and keypad buttons interact with the player differently in each mode. When you insert a USB device in the LitePort connector, the player enters Full Screen mode if Auto Play is checked (the default setting) and the AutoPlay folder contains a JPEG or it enters Folder View if Auto Play is not checked. The AutoPlay folder is automatically created by LitePort Utility. See its online help for details.

In Folder View mode, pressing the Next button (or the Down arrow) places the white selection box around the next folder, pressing the Previous button (or the Up arrow) places the selection box around the previous folder, press- ing Select selects the current folder and enters File View mode. Nine folder thumbnails can be displayed on the screen at a time. If your USB drive con- tains more than 9 folders, you can navigate to them by navigating to the last

thumbnail on the screen and pressing Next or Down arrow. You are looped back to Folder 1 when you reach the end of the folder list.

In File View mode, pressing Next (or Down) places the selection box around the next JPEG file, pressing Previous (or Up) places the selection box around the previous JPEG, pressing Select selects the current JPEG and enters Full Screen mode, or, if the “return to folders” arrow is highlighted, returns to Folder View mode. Eight file thumbnails can be displayed on the screen at a time. If your folder contains more than 8 folders, you can navigate to them by navigating to the last thumbnail on the screen and pressing Next. You are looped back to File 1 when you reach the end of the file list.
