Chapter 8: Troubleshooting

Recording problems

•If you use the TV’s remote control to start recording, you will not be able to change inputs (- page 32), open the POP window (- page 40). If you attempt to do so, the message “Not Available While Recording” will appear on-screen.

•If you are recording a digital channel, you can only change analog channels while recording is in progress. If you are recording an analog channel, you can only change digital channels while the recording is in progress. This is because the TV tuner that is being recorded (digital or analog) will be locked on the channel that is currently recording.

•It is recommended that you use the TV’s remote control to start recording. If you use a device other than the TV’s remote control to start recording and then attempt to access a feature that is normally denied during recording (POP mode, changing inputs,) the recorded audio and/or video may not be what you intended to record.

Audio Player problems

The Audio Player stutters and/or stops when playing files over the network

•The networked PC is not available, was removed from the network, or is in "hibernation." The Ethernet cables are not connected properly. Check all cables for proper connection.

•Sufficient network band-width is not available. Turn off any other file sharing programs, network-based games, or other network-intensive operations while the Audio Player is playing.

“No media found” message is displayed

•Sharing is not correctly set up on the networked PC. Make sure you connected your home network correctly (- Installation Guide) and set up the network address properly (- Chapter 7).

Title or artist name is not displayed

•The MP3 file does not contain valid meta-data or does not meet supported specifications (- “Media specifications” in Chapter 7).

•Sufficient network band-width is not available. Turn off any other file sharing programs, network-based games, or other network-intensive operations while the Audio Player is playing.
