Tips and Troubleshooting

WHY CAN’T I USE ON-SCREEN NAVIGATION TO BROWSE AND SELECT MY VIDEOS AND SLIDESHOWS USING THE HOMEDOCK DELUXE?

The current Apple iPod ﬁrmware requires that you select and start video or photo slideshows on the iPod itself. It does not allow on-screen navigation of videos or photos - only music. You can, however control playback and trans- port functions of videos and photos like Play/Pause, Fast Forward, Rewind, etc. using the HomeDock Deluxe Remote. To see the many functions you can control with the HomeDock Deluxe Remote Control, refer to Playing Photo Slideshows or Watching iPod Videos. (See pages 14-16)

DOES THE HOMEDOCK DELUXE CHARGE MY IPOD’S BATTERY?

Yes. The HomeDock Deluxe fully charges and powers your iPod whenever your iPod is connected.

DO I HAVE TO USE A TV WITH THE HOMEDOCK DELUXE?

No. The only time you need a TV is to view Videos or Photos from a Video or Photo compatible iPod or for on-screen navigation of your music. With all other uses, the HomeDock Deluxe is a music-based, remote controlled home docking system for your iPod that requires nothing but a stereo or powered speakers to play your iPod’s music.

Of course, to get the most out of your HomeDock Deluxe, you should connect it to a TV and home stereo. Remember, in order to use On-Screen Music Navigation to select and choose your music, you have to connect your HomeDock Deluxe to your TV.

22DLO HOMEDOCK DELUXE USER MANUAL

WHERE ARE MY PODCASTS WHEN I’M USING ON-SCREEN NAVIGATION? The HomeDock Deluxe categorizes your Podcasts under Genres. Just select Genres from the Music Menu and ﬁnd the Podcast you’d like to hear. If you want, you can organize your Podcasts into a Playlist in iTunes and then access them on your television using the HomeDock Deluxe.

NOTE: Your iPod will sometimes organize certain Podcasts under Albums or Artists, so be sure to check there as well.

MY HOMEDOCK DELUXE ISN’T WORKING, WHAT’S THE DEAL? First, be sure that your HomeDock Deluxe is powered on. Next, make sure that you are in the desired mode - On-Screen Navigation or iPod. To change modes, simply push the Mode button on your Remote Control.

NTSC - PAL SWITCHING

The HomeDock Deluxe’s default broadcast format is NTSC. However, it is PAL compatible too. If you have a TV that is formatted for PAL and your iPod’s TV signal is set for PAL, simply select the PAL setting on the back of the HomeDock Deluxe base unit.
