You can’t access the selected menu, even when you press OK

If the name of the menu appears on a transparent background, it means that the corresponding menu or function is not available.The Disc, Video, Music, Pictures and Card menus are contextual menus: they depend on operations performed beforehand such as:

Disc is only accessible if there is a disc in the disc tray of your DTH 8000.

Titles is only accessible once you have recorded a TV program or video sequence (from an external device).

Play list is only accessible with a CD.

Card is only accessible once you have connected a card reader to the front USB socket and inserted a card in it.

Your DTH 8000 menu disappears

As with computers, your DTH 8000 has a screen saver which replaces the fixed menu by a mobile THOMSON logo. Press on a navigation key to bring back the fixed menu.

The Card line on the Main Menu of your DTH 8000 is not active

The drive is not recognised by your DTH 8000. It must correspond to the “USB 1.1 Mass Storage Class” standard. In certain cases you may need to turn it off, with the card reader connected to the USB socket, then turn on your DTH 8000 so that it recognises the drive. In other cases you may have to insert the card in the drive before connecting it to the USB socket.
