6.File Playback Function
This chapter covers all functions regarding playing multimedia contents. The DP-H1 can play movie, music and photo files stored in the internal hard disk drive, PCs on the home network, USB storage devices, and memory cards. You can also play the recording contents in this mode. You can enter this operation mode with the FILE PLAY button.
1. Exploring Contents
To provide a user-friendly interface, the main menu is structured in three parts; the first part is a top (horizontal) menu where you can select a type of contents to play. The second part is a left (vertical) menu where you can select a storage or device where the contents are stored. The last part is a file list where you can view and select files and folders.
The following picture shows the main menu and illustrates the structure. A step-by-step explanation will be provided to help you understand its operation.
1) Step 1: Select Content Type
With the LEFT/RIGHT buttons, you can select a content type you want to play. If you select “Movie” icon on the top menu, only the movie files will be displayed on the screen even though a folder or device contains other type of contents such as music or photo. You can also choose “Music” or “Photo” icon with the LEFT/RIGHT buttons.
