Important information
• Please install and connect the product in the order as described in this manual
only.
• Please read this guide carefully before using the Streamium LCD TV and keep it for
future reference.
• The most recent downloads and information on this product will be available through
our website www.philips.com/streamium.
•Broadband Internet access (min. 256 kbps) is required if you want to use the Internet
functions of the Streamium LCD TV.
• Please check whether your Internet service provider charges extra fees for exceeding
a certain limit of transferred data.
When using Internet media services on a daily basis, you may exceed such a limit.
For example: When you listen to Internet radio (at 64 kbps) for about 36 hours, 1 GB
(gigabyte) of data will be transferred to your streamium system. Watching Internet video at
700 kbps exceeds a 1 GB limit in 3 hours.
• During set-up and installation, it may be helpful to have the instructions for your TV set,
audio system and wireless base station or other wireless network components (if
appropriate) at hand.
Safety Precautions
• NEVER MAKE OR CHANGE CONNECTIONS WITH THE POWER SWITCHED ON.
• Before operating the system, check that the operating voltage indicated on the nameplate
(or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) of your system is identical with
the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer.
• Radio equipment for wireless applications is not protected against disturbance from
other radio services.
• The product should not be exposed to dripping or splashing.
No object filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on the product.
• Do not expose the system to excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources caused by
heating equipment or direct sunlight.
• Allow a sufficient amount of free space all around the Streamium LCD TV for adequate
ventilation.
• Do not attempt to repair the product yourself if you experience technical difficulties.
Contact your Philips retailer.
• Place the system on a flat, hard and stable surface. When the system is switched to
standby mode, it is still consuming some power. To disconnect the system from the
power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.
• Make sure the air around the Streamium LCD TV can circulate to prevent the set from
overheating internally. Also, avoid putting any heat sources (e.g. a power amplifier)
underneath. The Streamium TV has a thermal shutdown that shuts down the set when
the internal temperature exceeds a certain threshold. If this happens, the set switches
to standby with the Power-LED flashing on and off. To remedy this situation: disconnect
the mains, let the set cool down, improve ventilation, and reconnect the set to the
mains.

Wireless Network Name (SSID):
Usually, you can find the wireless network name in the
options menu of your Wireless Network Adapter or
Wireless Base Station. To check this, open the program
that came with your network adapter.
Encryption key:
The wireless encryption key is a 64 or 128 bit WEP
code that secures your wireless network
communications.
– 64-bit: 5 characters ASCII, or 10 characters HEX, or
– 128 bit: 13 characters ASCII, or 26 characters HEX.
Note : The encryption key is case sensitive, meaning
that ‘ABC’ is not the same as ‘aBc’. Always input
characters in the correct case to avoid problems.
Basically, you will have to try and remember what you
set it to. If you cannot remember the encryption key,
you will either have to disable it completely for your
entire wireless network, or set a new one that you
can remember.

Chapter 3 – Enabling broadband Internet entertainment
If you have a broadband Internet connection (minimum
256 kbps), you can stream Internet radio stations and
movie trailers live from the Internet to the Streamium
LCD TV. Broadband internet also provides the on-line
upgrades for the Streamium LCD TV. The Internet
entertainment offering is constantly being improved and
new functions are added. Visit www.philips.com/streamium
for the latest possibilities.
3.1 How does your computer connect to
the Internet?
Option A: With a wired broadband Internet
connection
If you have a PC with a wired broadband Internet
connection, you will have to make that Internet connection
available to the wireless (or wired) network. To do this,
install router/gateway software on the PC for bridging the
broadband Internet connection to the wireless or wired
network. As an example we have included a chapter on
page 38-41 on the Philips Media Manager CD on how to
enable Internet Connection Sharing from your Microsoft
Windows®operating system. For Microsoft®and other
operating systems, third party router/gateway software is
readily available on the market. For more information on
sharing an Internet connection, read the documentation
that came with the software or with your operating system.
> After bridging the internet connection to your wireless
(or wired) network, you will be able to access the Internet
just like your computer. Wireless base stations (and wired
internet gateway routers) share their broadband Internet
access automatically within the network.
®
INTERNET
This applies to both a
wired and a wireless
connection between
your PC and the
Streamium TV.
OR
Option B: Through a wireless base station
Wireless base stations (and wired internet gateway
routers) share their broadband Internet access
automatically within the network.
> The Streamium LCD TV will be able to access the
Internet just like your other wireless or wired network
computer(s).

Chapter 12 – What you need to know about networks
Important note:The Streamium LCD TV has a built-in wireless network adapter and is a wireless network
device exactly like the PCs with a wireless network adapter in the illustrations below.
A network provides a means of communication between two or more computers (and other devices) that are connected
to each other through wired or wireless means.
WIRED
At each computer, you will need a network adapter or Network Interface Card (NIC) to be able to connect the
computer to the network cable. Examples are:
Ethernet
Already built-in PCI expansion card USB/Ethernet cable Ethernet notebook
adapter
WIRELESS
At each computer, you will need to install a WiFi wireless network adapter to be able to connect to another wireless
network device. Examples are:
Already built-in Wireless PCI Wireless USB Wireless notebook
You do not need to open your PC to connect a wireless USB/notebook adapter (available from Philips) or USB/Ethernet
cable to your PC.

What you need to know about networks
In a network, the computers need to be able to connect
to each other physically. Therefore, another important
network property is how the computers connect to each
other, either directly or through a central device.
ONE-ON-ONE WIRED NETWORK
also known as: Direct connection network (max. two PCs)
Note: Use a crossover Ethernet cable to connect two computers
directly to each other.
WIRED NETWORK WITH MORE THAN
TWO PCs
Use a hub or switch to connect more than two PCs to
each other.
Note: Use straight-through Ethernet cables to connect the
computers to the central device (hub/switch).
HOW TO INTERCONNECT WIRED
NETWORKS
Use a gateway router to connect one network to another
(e.g. to the Internet, also known as WAN).
ONE-ON-ONE WIRELESS NETWORK
also known as: ad-hoc / peer-to-peer
WIRELESS NETWORK WITH MORE
THAN TWO PCs
The wireless medium forms a hub in and of itself.
No hardware hub is needed.
Note: For very small networks only.
BRIDGING WIRELESS NETWORKS TO
THE INTERNET
(e.g. the Internet, also known as WAN) also known as:
infrastructure / access point. Use a wireless access point
or base station.
Central devices, like a hub, switch, router or wireless base
station may be stand-alone devices or built into a computer.
•Ahub has multiple ports and serves as a central
connection point for communication lines from all
computers on a wired network. It copies all data
arriving at one port to the other ports. A switch is
similar to a hub, but is able to handle different network
speeds at each port.
• Gateway routers and wireless base stations route
network traffic from one network to another (e.g. from
a wired network to the Internet, or from a wireless
network to a wired network or to the Internet).
Important: Wired and Wireless components may be
linked together to provide a variety of network layouts/
topologies.

Chapter 13 - Advanced wireless network information
What are wireless network connections?
Your wireless network adapter uses a wireless protocol (called IEEE 802.11b/g or WiFi) to
communicate with the Streamium LCD TV by means of radio transmissions. WiFi radio
waves travel outwards from the antenna in all directions, and can transmit through walls
and floors. WiFi can theoretically reach up to 200 meters in an open environment and
reach speeds of up to 11 (b) or 54 (g) megabits per second (Mbps) at close range. However,
the actual network range and data throughput rate will always be less, depending on the
wireless signal quality.
Factors determining your network range and network speed
• Wireless signals travel farther outside of buildings, and when the wireless components
are in direct line of sight to one another. Putting wireless components high up helps
avoid physical obstacles and provides better coverage.
• Building construction such as metal framing and concrete or masonry walls and floors
will reduce radio signal strength. Avoid putting wireless components next to walls and
other large, solid objects; or next to large metal objects such as computers, monitors,
and appliances.
• Wireless signal range, speed, and strength can be affected by interference from
neighbouring wireless networks and devices. Electromagnetic devices such as televisions,
radios, microwave ovens, and cordless telephones, especially those with frequencies in
the 2.4 GHz range, may also interfere with wireless transmission.
• Standing or sitting too close to wireless equipment can also affect radio signal quality.
• Adjusting the antennas: Certain areas, such as directly below the antenna, get relatively
poor reception. Moving the antenna slightly may improve your reception. Note : Pointing
the antenna toward another wireless component will not improve reception.
Securing your wireless network
Since wireless computer networks use radio signals, it is possible for other wireless network
devices outside your immediate area to pick up the wireless signals and either connect to
your network or to capture the network traffic.Therefore, you should always enable the
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) network encryption key to help prevent unauthorised
connections or the possibility of eavesdroppers listening in on your network traffic.
What is WEP?
WEP is a 64-bit or 128 bit encryption key for securing your wireless network communication.
Preferably, you should use the highest encryption strength available. Always enter the same
key with the same length for all your home network computers and for the Streamium
LCD TV.
Securing your network from Internet access
Check in the documentation of your Wireless Base Station or gateway router whether it
provides you with a built-in firewall and network address translation (NAT), providing
security for an ‘always-on’ broadband Internet connection that is being shared among the
computers and devices on your home network. Computers on an ad-hoc network may
share an Internet connection that is set up on one of the computers (ICS). However, a
firewall is usually not built-in and you should install one on the computer that is sharing the
Internet connection.
What is a firewall?
A firewall acts as a barrier that helps protect your network from outside intruders.The
firewall specifies what information can be communicated from the computers on your
network to the Internet, and from the Internet to the computers on your network.

Advanced wireless network information
The DOs and DON’Ts of securing your wireless network
DO
Enable the highest WEP key level that your hardware provides for. Upgrade your hardware,
if possible. If you do not protect your wireless network, all data from your PC might be
accessible by, for example, your neighbours or passers-by. Use a wireless base station or
router with Network Address Translation (NAT) and firewall enabled for sharing your
Internet connection.
Change the default passwords for your network devices. Leaving these at default makes it
easy for an outsider to gain access.
Position wireless access points away from windows and toward the centre of your home.This
decreases the strength of the signal outside your home.
Some wireless access points allow you to control access based on the unique Media Access
Control (MAC) address of the network adapter trying to associate with it. If a MAC address
has not been registered in the wireless access point, it will not associate with it. If your
access point has this feature, enable it and add the MAC addresses of the network adapters
including the one from the Streamium LCD TV.
The Wireless MAC address of the Streamium LCD TV can be found in the Options menu
by pressing the MENU button on the remote control.Then select Network > Wireless
Info.
Install an anti-virus program on each computer on your network and use it regularly to
check your computers for viruses. Remember to update the anti-virus program on a regular
basis.
DON’T
Do not rely on radio transmission range limitations to secure your network. Enable wireless
security (WEP) to protect your network from unwanted access.
Do not use WEP keys and passwords that are easy to guess. Do not change passwords to
reflect your name, address, or anything that would be easy to guess.
Never open attachments to email messages that you are not expecting. In addition, scan all
diskettes and homemade CDs for viruses before opening files from them, or before starting
your computer from them.
Do not load a program from an unknown source onto one of your network computers.
Do not ignore the common signs of viruses: unusual messages that appear on your screen,
decreased system performance, missing data, and inability to access your hard drive. If you
notice any of these problems on your computer, run your anti-virus program immediately
to minimise the chances of losing data.
Do not connect your home network to broadband Internet without taking security
measures:
If you do not have a wireless base station installed on your network and you are sharing
Internet access through one of the computers, you may want to consider installing firewall
software.

Chapter 15 – Internet connection sharing
Before you press the INTERNET button for the first time, you need to
make sure that the Streamium LCD TV has Internet access. Either directly
through a wireless base station, or indirectly through a PC with Internet
access and router/gateway software (e.g. ICS from the Windows OS)
installed and running.
If you connect (either wired or wireless) the Streamium
LCD TV to an existing network host with Internet
access
Prefered solution:
If you have an existing home network with centrally shared broadband
Internet access for all connected computers, you can connect the Streamium
LCD TV directly to your central network device : the router/gateway.That
way, the Streamium LCD TV can access the Internet just like your other
computers and you do not need to install ICS to make Internet access
available to your Streamium LCD TV.
If you connect the Streamium LCD TV (by wires or
wireless) to a stand-alone or client PC with Internet
access
If you connect the Wireless Network adapter to a stand-alone or client
PC with an existing broadband Internet connection, you will need to
bridge - within that PC - the wireless or wired connection that connects
to the Streamium LCD TV, to the existing network adapter that connects
to the Internet.You do this by enabling Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)
from your Microsoft® Windows® operating system for that PC. This makes
the PC share its existing broadband Internet connection with the Streamium
LCD TV.
ICS configuration and usage issues
ICS is intended for use in small networks in which the network configuration
and the Internet connection are managed by the Windows-based computer
on which the shared connection resides (the ‘host’ computer). It is assumed
that on its network, this computer is the only Internet connection, it is the
only gateway to the Internet, and that it sets up all internal network
addresses (this means it is the DHCP server for the network).
If a network has a central host computer or router that acts as a DHCP
server, this server automatically allocates IP addresses, netmasks, and the
gateway address to all DHCP client computers and devices in the network.
Important notes
– Only Microsoft Windows98 SE (Second Edition) or higher provides ICS, other
operating systems are not supported.You may try to use other router/gateway
software at your own discretion.
–You should only install Internet Connection Sharing on the computer that
you use to connect to the Internet.
– The host computer must remain switched on during Internet access sharing.
– ICS is router/gateway software with Dynamic Host Control Protocol server
(DHCP) functionality. The ICS host computer must be the only DHCP server
on the network. Before installing ICS, first disable any DHCP services that are
provided on the network (e.g. by a hardware router/gateway or base station).
Refer to the router/gateway manufacturer’s instructions on how to disable its
DHCP services.

Chapter 16 – Advanced (Network) problem solving
Go to www.philips.com/streamium for the latest information on problem solving.
Movies will not play:
The bit rate might be too high. Convert the movie to a lower bit rate.
Check your broadband Internet speed
At www.2wire.com/meter/bm.html you can check your broadband Internet speed. This
should be more than 240 kbps for the Streamium LCD TV’s Internet function to work.
Check with your Internet Service Provider:
– Whether you may connect more than one device (computers and the Streamium system)
to the internet connection.
– Whether your ISP allows only devices with registered MAC ad dresses to connect to
the Internet.
– Whether or not you need to set-up proxy servers for HTTP and/or RTSP.
Check whether you have activated the same wireless encryption key
throughout your wireless network:
If you have forgotten your Encryption key, switch off encryption or set a new encryption
key for your entire wireless network and for the Streamium LCD TV.
If you are using a firewall, check whether you have opened the ports
42951 TCP and 42591 UDP:
Some ports need to be opened, check at www.philips.com/streamium for the latest
information on which ports need to be open.
Check your network’s IP configuration:
Check the Options menu of the Streamium LCD TV. In the Network > Network Info menu
a gateway address should be present.This should be the IP address of the PC or network
device that connects to the Internet.You can check the network gateway address through
your network adapter program or with IPCONFIG (see below).
Note: Philips Wireless USB/Notebook Adapter users may click the ‘Link information’ tab in the
CPWUA/CPWNA Monitor program.
Check your computer’s IP configuration as
follows:
For Windows 98SE / Windows Me
1 Click ‘Start’, ‘Run...’, and enter ‘winipcfg’.
2 Click ‘OK’ to view the IP settings.
3 In this window, select your wireless network adapter.
4 Click ‘More Info>>’ to expand.

3For each network adapter, you will see results similar
to the window on the left.
• If your network uses static IP addressing that you
have set manually, then you will also need to choose a
unique IP address for the Streamium LCD TV in the
same range as the network’s IP addresses (e.g.
192.168.2.xxx). Use the same subnet mask as your
network (e.g. 255.255.255.000), and write down the
IP address of the network device that connects you to
the Internet (the Gateway IP address).
• Sometimes your Internet Service Provider requires
you to use a proxy address. Check this with your
Internet Service Provider. Alternatively, check the proxy
settings of your Internet browser software for more
information.

Glossary
RGB signals : These are the three video signals, Red Green Blue, which make up the picture.
Using these signals improves picture quality.
S-VHS Signals: These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording standards.
The luminance signals Y (black and white) and chrominance signals C (colour) are recorded separately on
the tape.This provides better picture quality than with standard video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C
signals are combined to provide only one video signal.
NICAM sound: Process by which digital sound can be transmitted.
System: Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries.There are different
standards: BG, DK, I, and L L’.The
System setting (p. 5) is used to select these different standards.This is not
to be confused with PAL or SECAM colour coding. Pal is used in most countries in Europe, Secam in
France, Russia and most African countries.The United States and Japan use a different system called NTSC.
16:9: Refers to the ration between the length and height of the screen.
Wide screen televisions have a ration of 16/9, conventional screen TV sets have a ration of 4/3.

Cleaning the set
Still no results?
The proximity of mountains or high buildings may be responsible for ghost
pictures, echoing or shadows. In this case, try manually adjusting your picture: see
Fine Tune (p.5) or modify the orientation of the outside aerial. If you are using an
indoor aerial, reception may be difficult in certain conditions.You can improve
reception by rotating the aerial. If the reception remains poor, you will need to
use an external aerial
Have you connected the aerial socket properly? Have you chosen the right
system? (p. 5). Poorly connected euroconnector cables or aerial sockets are often
the cause of picture or sound problems (sometimes the connectors can become
half disconnected if the TV set is moved or turned). Check all connections.
If on certain channels you receive a picture but no sound,this means that you do not have
the correct TV system. Modify the
System
setting (p. 5).
The amplifier connected to the TV does not deliver any sound? Check that you
have not confused the audio output with the audio input.
Check that you have configured the computer on a compatible display resolution
(see p. 11).
The TV set does not react to the remote control; the indicator on the set no
longer flashes when you use the remote control? Replace the battery.
If the set receives no signal for 15 mins, it automatically goes into standby mode.
To save power, your set is fitted with components that give it a very low power
consumption when in standby mode (less than 1 W).
Only use a clean, soft and lint-free cloth to clean the screen and the casing of your
set. Do not use alcohol-based or solvent-based products.
Disconnect the mains plug of the TV for 30 seconds then reconnect it.
If your TV set breaks down, never attempt to repair it yourself: contact your
dealer's after-sales service.

Positioning the TV
For the best results, choose a position where light
does not fall directly on the screen, and at some
distance away from radiators or other sources of
heat. Leave a space of at least 5 cm all around the
TV for ventilation, making sure that curtains,
cupboards etc. cannot obstruct the air flow through
the ventilation apertures.The TV is intended for use
in a domestic environment only and should never be
operated or stored in excessively hot or humid
atmospheres.
General Points
Please take note of the section entitled 'Tips' at the
end of this booklet.
Interference
The Department of Trade and Industry operates a
Radio Interference Investigation Service to help TV
licence holders improve reception of BBC and IBA
programmes where they are being spoilt by
interference.
If your dealer cannot help, ask at a main Post Office
for the booklet "How to Improve Television and
Radio Reception".
Mains connection
Before connecting the TV to the mains, check that the
mains supply voltage corresponds to the voltage
printed on the type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If
the mains voltage is different,consult your dealer.
Important
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded
13 Amp plug.To change a fuse in this type of plug
proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit new fuse which should be a BS1362 5A,
A.S.T.A. or BSI approved type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
In order to maintain conformity to the EMC directive,
the mains plug on this product must not be removed.
Connecting the aerial
The aerial should be connected to the socket
marked : at the back of the set.An inferior aerial
is likely to result in a poor, perhaps unstable picture
with ghost images and lack of contrast. Make-shift loft
or set-top aerials are often inadequate.Your dealer
will know from experience the most suitable type for
your locality.
Should you wish to use the set in conjunction with
other equipment, which connects to the aerial socket
such as TV games, or a video camera it is recommended
that these be connected via a combiner unit to avoid
repeated connection and disconnection of the aerial plug.
Fitting the stand (if provided)
Use only the stand provided with the set, making
sure that the fixings are properly tightened.A
diagram showing how to assemble the stand is
packed with the stand. Never use a make-shift stand,
or legs fixed with woodscrews.
