*** For audio with more than 2 channels, connect the product to

a digital home receiver. The audio is passed through the coaxial

connection (see section 3.1.3. Optical Audio (S/PDIF) Connection).

TECHNICAL NOTE: A container, such as AVI or MOV, is a file format that defines how the data stream is stored. They contain data that has been compressed using a codec. For a file to play properly on your LaCinema HD Connect, both its codec and container type must be supported.

TECHNICAL NOTE: You can download third party applications that will help you to identify a file’s codec, container, and other in- formation. LaCie suggests the free application Media Info.
