IR Remote Control

The optional handheld IR remote control provides selection of pre-defined streams and files, and direct control over playback. Features include standard transport controls for play, pause, and stop. Up to 99 pre-configured channels can be directly accessed using the digit buttons.

The following list details the available functions. POWER — Toggles the SMD 101 power on and off.

CHANNEL — Steps up or down through the channel list from the last selected channel.

VOLUME — Increase and decrease output volume to a display device connected to the SMD 101 (see Rear Panel Features on page 9).

Digits — Provides direct selection of up to 99 pre-defined channels (see Lists Panel – Channels tab on page 22).

AV MUTE — Mutes both the outgoing audio and video but allows a stream to continue playback.

INFO — Launches an onscreen display with details of the currently active stream (see On Screen Display on page 31).

ENTER — After channel entry using direct selection (see Digits, above) the entry is accepted after a short delay. Press Enter after the channel entry to change to the channel immediately.

VIDEO MUTE — Mutes and unmutes only the video output. AUDIO MUTE — Mutes and unmutes only the audio output.

PROGRESS — Provides real-time information of the current playback stream in the on-screen display of a connected display. It includes the total play time of the stream and the current position of playback. The on-screen display duplicates the player controls (see Progress Bar Panel on page 32).

TRANSPORT CONTROL — Provides remote access of the player controls panel (see Player Controls on page 16) including:

PLAY — Begins normal playback of the selected stream or file.

PREV — When a playlist is loaded, returns to the previous track.

PAUSE — Pauses the current playback freezing the last decoded frame.

NEXT — When a playlist is loaded, moves to the next track.

LOOP — Places the currently selected clip or playlist into an endless loop.

STOP — Stops the playback of the current source.
