TV
BestGood Good
2 If necessary, reduce the distance and angle between HMP8100 and the
remote control.
Tip
• The remote control is using an absolute pointing mechanism which aims at giving an intuitive and
predictable experience and enabling faster interaction with the user interface of the player. The
cursor always shows on the expected screen position for each angular orientation, even returning
from out of the screen. There is no calibr ation needed as a reference point is always broadcast
at the hidden transmitter of the player and therefore the player should be placed in a visible area
close to the TV for the best pointing experience.
