Audio Player problems

The Audio Player stutters and/or stops when playing

files over the network

•The networked PC is not available, was removed from
the network, or is in "hibernation." The Ethernet cables
are not connected properly. Check all cables for proper
connection.
•Sufficient network band-width is not available. Turn off
any other file sharing programs, network-based games, or
other network-intensive operations while the Audio
Player is playing.

“No media found” message is displayed

•Sharing is not correctly set up on the networked PC.
Make sure you connected your home network correctly
(- Installation Guide) and set up the network address
properly (- Chapter 7).
•The MP3 files exceed the specified limits (- “Media
specifications” in Chapter 7).

Title or artist name is not displayed

•The MP3 file does not contain valid meta-data or does not
meet supported specifications (- “Media
specifications” in Chapter 7).

The Audio Player takes almost a minute to start

•Sufficient network band-width is not available. Turn off
any other file sharing programs, network-based games, or
other network-intensive operations while the Audio
Player is playing.
•The shared folder has too many files or sub-folders. If the
shared folder on the networked PC contains a large
number of files or nested directories, it may take over a
minute for the Audio Player to locate all playable files.

The File is displayed but is always skipped

•The file is not a valid or supported MP3 file.

Some files in the shared folder are not played

•Only the first 200 MP3 files found will be played. Folders
nested 10 or more levels below the shared folder are not
searched.

The Audio Player plays (progress bar and animation

change) but audio is not heard

•The volume level is not high enough or TV is muted.

“No pictures found” message is displayed.

•Sharing is not correctly set up on the networked PC.

(- Installation Guide) and set up the network address
properly (- Chapter 7).

folder(s).
•The number of pictures files found is more than the TV

the TV for display. See “Media specifications” in Chapter
