CONNECTING THE TV TUNER

Your TV Tuner and Instant MyMedia will work “out-of-the-box”, but if you want to connect your notebook to an external device, follow the instructions in this section.

• The WinDVR application located on the TV Tuner Application Disc should be installed before connecting the TV tuner.

• If you are connecting external devices to your notebook, be sure to read the instructions that accompany them before connecting them.

The following external devices can be connected to the notebook to work with Instant MyMedia:

• Image devices such as video decks and video cameras. These can be connected either with composite cables or S-Video cables.

• Audio devices can be connected via the video audio input jack on the notebook.

Connecting an Antenna

In order to receive television signals, you must first hook up an antenna to your notebook. An RF antenna adapter was included with the notebook for hooking up the antenna. Note that this requires an antenna (either cable or standalone) with a coaxial connection.

Antenna Jack

Antenna Adapter

Figure 6. Connecting the Antenna

To connect an antenna to your notebook:

1. Connect the wide coaxial connector end of the RF antenna adapter to the coaxial connector on the antenna (this includes cable TV antennas).

2. Connect the other end of the adapter to the antenna jack on the left side of the notebook, as shown in Figure 6.

Connecting an External Audio Device

You can listen to media from an external device such as an external CD player by connecting it to your notebook. In order to connect an audio device, you will first need to purchase a standard RCA cable harness (red/white, max 1Vrms), as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7. Audio Cable

To connect the audio cable:

1. Connect the cable to the audio output jacks on the external device by matching the colors of the cable with the colors of the jacks.

2. Connect the cable to the audio input jacks on the notebook by matching the colors of the cable with the colors of the jacks (See Figure 8).

Connecting an External Video Device

You can view videos and images from an external device on your notebook. Depending upon the configuration of the device, you will need to purchase either a composite RCA video cable (Figure 9) or an S-Video 4-pin cable (Figure 11). You will also need to connect an audio cable, as described in “Connecting an External Audio Device” on page 14. The video cables use different ports, as described below.

Composite Video Cable Connection

Figure 9. Composite Video Cable

To connect a composite video cable:

1. Connect the cable to the video output jack on the external device.

2. Connect the cable to the video input jack on the notebook (See Figure 10).

3. Connect the audio cable between the external device and the notebook, as described in “Connecting an External Audio Device” on page 14.

To connect an S-Video cable:

The S-Video connector is keyed so that it can only be inserted when it is aligned properly with the port. Be sure to examine the orientation of the connector with the port before inserting it. Forcible insertion may cause damage to the connector and/or port.

1. Connect the cable to the video output jack on the external device.

2. Connect the cable to the video input jack on the notebook (See Figure 12).

3. Connect the audio cable between the external device and the notebook, as described in “Connecting an External Audio Device” on page 14.

SETTING UP INSTANT MYMEDIA

When using Instant MyMedia for the first time, setup will begin automatically after Instant MyMedia is activated. Follow the steps below to complete installation.

When performing the installation, do not wear headphones initially; the volume may be greater than expected.

Be sure to follow the steps indicated below. Attempting to install Instant MyMedia using different steps could result in failure to start. Note that Instant MyMedia will cause the system to reboot twice during this installation procedure. If Instant MyMedia fails to start after following these steps, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual.

1. Verify that the system is not powered on, then press the MyMedia button on the remote control. During the first portion of the installation, the notebook will cycle through several

screens as different portions of the installation take place. At the end of this portion, the notebook will turn off.

2. Verify that the power indicator is not lit.

3. Press the MyMedia button on the remote control again. The last portion of the installation will begin. At the completion of installation, the notebook will turn off.

4. Press the MyMedia button on the remote control again. The Instant MyMedia main menu will appear. Instant MyMedia is now ready to use.

CD-R ---

CR-RW ---

DVD Video (VCD)

DVD Audio ---

DVD-R (4.7 GB)**

---

* Only DVDs with the correct region code can be used.

** DVD-Rs with a capacity of 3.95 GB cannot be used.

*** You may not be able to play DVD-RAMs recorded in Instant MyMedia on other DVD

players.

Before recording

Instant MyMedia can record the TV program being viewed on a DVD-RAM disc

• The procedures in this section assume that you are in TV mode.

• If in a pre-boot environment, you can only record to DVD-RAM discs.

• Instant MyMedia cannot record TV programs to a hard disk or using a timer. For recording to the hard disk or recording using the timer, refer to the WinDVR manual.

Initializing a DVD disc

If you use a new DVD-RAM disc or a DVD-RAM disc used in other applications, it must be initialized before recording.

If you want to record on a disc after deleting old programs recorded with Instant MyMedia, the disc must be initialized.

For double-sided DVD-RAM discs, initialize one side first, then the second side.

If data is written on a DVD-RAM disc, it will be deleted when the disc is initialized.

1. Insert the DVD-RAM disc you want to format into the notebook’s multi-format drive. If a disc for PC data is installed, a message stating so will appear. Follow the instructions on the screen to format the disc.

2. Press the [Menu] button while in TV mode.

3. Using the cursor control buttons, select the Disc Management tab.

4. Select “Quick format” or “Full format” and press the [Enter] button. Formatting will start.

Perform “Full format” in the following cases:

• When Instant MyMedia does not identify the disc even though “Quick Format” has already been performed previously.

• When recording has failed

• When using a new disc

• When using a disc used in writing data on the notebook

It takes about 75 minutes for “Full Format.”

5. When formatting has been completed, recordable time for the disc is indicated. Note that the percentage indicator showing progress status may abruptly accelerate at around 80%. In this case, initialization may have terminated, but the disc has been initialized without any problem. During the initialization, all operations become ineffective.

Setting the recording mode

There are three different recording modes: High Quality, Good Quality, and Extended Play.

Recording Mode Recording Time* Quality

DVD HQ: High Quality Approximately 1 hour Best

DVD GQ: Good Quality Approximately 2 hours Better

DVD EP: Extended Play Approximately 3 hours Good

Recording TV programs

1. Display the channel to be recorded. See “Watching TV and External Video without Booting Up” on page 19

2. Insert a formatted DVD-RAM disc into the optical drive of the notebook. Wait until “Loading a disc...” disappears. You cannot start the recording until “Loading a disc...” disappears.

3. Press the [REC] button. Recording starts.

• During recording, buttons other than the [Stop/Eject] button of the remote controller, the Volume (+)/(-) buttons, or the [Stop/Eject] button and the volume adjusting button of the notebook become ineffective. When a setting time for an off-timer is reached during the recording, the off-timer will be canceled.

• Even if data is recorded on a dual-sided DVD-RAM, continuous recording on both sides of the disc cannot be performed.

4. Press the Stop/Eject button on the remote control or the Stop/Eject button on the notebook when the recording has been completed. The notebook stops recording and the disc stops. When pressing the Stop/Eject button on the remote control or the Stop/Eject button on the notebook again, the tray emerges from the drive to eject the disc.
