MAX-AVP User Interface

MAX-AVP User Interface

Overview

When the AVP is first powered up, via the power switch on the rear panel, the first screen displayed is the MAX-AVP Startup screen. Allow the AVP a minute to boot up and load its system software.

Once the AVP is ready to use, the main splash screen (FIG. 1) is displayed. At this point, you can either insert a CD or DVD for playback, or access content stored on the MAX Server.

FIG. 1 MAX-AVP Splash Screen

If a disc is loaded in the AVP, the Splash Screen displays the message: "Disc

Loaded and Ready" (as opposed to the "No disc present" message shown above).

Playing Local Content (CDs and DVDs)

“Local Content” is media (CD or DVD) that is physically loaded in the AVP, as opposed to MAX server content, which can be accessed via the AVP, but resides on the MAX Server. Refer to the Accessing Media Stored on the MAX Server section on page 27 for details on options that are specific to MAX Server content.

When the AVP is used to play local content (a DVD or CD in its own drive), it behaves like most consumer-level disc players. Use the hand-held remote controller to control display and playback

When used to access media on a MAX Server, use the remote controller to navigate the MAX options via the on-screen display.

Local content playback overrides playback of MAX Server content. If you are playing media (CD or DVD) from a MAX Server, and insert a disc into the AVP, the server-based content will be interrupted, and the local content will automatically begin to play.
