Reading JPEG and MP3 files

Reading JPEG files

This DVD Player can play discs with JPEG files on it. Make sure the resolution of the JPEG files is less than 2 megapixels (2M).

Note: Depending upon the size and number of the JPEG files, it could take a long time for the DVD player to read the disc’s contents. If you don’t see an on-screen display after several minutes, some of the files are too big — reduce the resolution of the JPEG files to less than 2 megapixels and burn another disc.

When you play a JPEG disc, a JPEG menu is displayed. Use the Navigation keys to select a picture or folder (if there are any) then confirm your choice with B (playback).

No banner is displayed when JPEG image files are being shown.

If the picture appears upside down or on its side, press the K (PAUSE) key.

If JPEG or MP3 files are recorded on the disc or the disc is a Video CD containing JPEG image files, a contextual menu is displayed.

What’s MP3?

MP3 is the audio file format allowing you to easily compress music recordings, and was

co-developedby Thomson multimedia.

.

The main advantage of MP3 is that it enables storage of CD-quality music tracks on a home computer in manageable, compressed files.

Thanks to compression you now only need about 4 Mb of disc space for a 4 minute music track, compared with some 40 Mb for conventional file formats, but with almost no reduction in listening quality!

MP3 CD Playback

When you play an MP3 disc, an MP3 menu is displayed. The DVD player menu is not available when playing MP3 discs. MP3 content is divided into album(s) and songs. A disc may hold several albums and each album can contain several songs. (Similar to titles and chapters on a DVD disc.)

Use the remote control Navigation keys to select albums and songs.

As computer files, several levels (several albums)

may be recorded on a disc.

Song skip

Press repeatedly on the ❿❿ or ➛➛ keys to go to the previous song or to the next one. Press as many times as the number of songs you want to skip (wait a few seconds after each press).
