USB Flash Drives or Media Players

You can connect up to two USB flash drives or a media player such as an iPod to a USB port on the front or rear panel of the Digital Entertainer Express.

The Digital Entertainer Express plays files stored in Windows (FAT, FAT32, NTFS), Macintosh, or Linux disk formats. It does not matter if you set up the music player on a PC or a Mac.

Note: Be sure to use USBv2 devices with your Digital Entertainer Express. The limited bandwidth of the older USBv1 devices might interfere with the performance of your playback.

To play media with a USB connection:

1.Either use a USB cable or directly insert your USB product to the USB port on the front or rear of the Digital Entertainer Express.

The Digital Entertainer Express scans the media, and then the media files are available for you to play on the Digital Entertainer Express.

2.If you want to play the media on your USB device, press Music, Video, or Pics on the remote control, and then select the media files.

Note: When browsing media files on an iPod, note that iTunes uses an unusual file- naming convention to store music files on the iPod. The Digital Entertainer Express can display only the folder names as they are saved on the iPod. You can find the files by using other criteria, such as artist or genre.
