Page 19

Notes:

13.6 DVB-T Program Guide (EPG)

- The possible choice of languages and whether the AC3 mode is available depend on the viewed DVB-T program. Some programs may offer only one language and no AC3 mode. The AC3 audio mode may also be available only during certain hours of broadcast (e.g. for films).

- When you select theAC3 audio track, your television speakers are muted. This is because the sound is transmitted directly to your home theatre system via the coaxial output of the unit. Please make sure that your home theatre can decode AC3 audio signal beforehand.

- If you have selected the AC3 sound mode and then switch to another channel which broadcasts only in stereo mode, the volume may increase. This is normal and depends on your home theatre equipment settings: to avoid any possible listening discomfort, reduce the volume in advance.

Press the EPG button to access the program guide of DVB-T channels. You may also consult the details of a program in the EPG menu. Note: Such information is provided by channels and may not always be available. Press the EXIT/RECALL button to quit the EPG menu.

Note: If you enter the timer recording menu (by pressing the TIMER button on the remote control) and program a recording to start in less than 5 minutes, do not put the unit to standby (by pressing the STANDBY button) immediately afterwards; otherwise, the recoding may be canceled.

14.4. Formatting your USB device

This option allows you to format your USB device. This can be useful for:

- Freeing the entire disk space in order to make recordings;

- In case of problems, making your USB device compatible with the unit. To access this function, press the TIMER button on the remote control and then select the option USB Information.

Caution

-The formatting process will erase all the data on your USB device. It is recommended that you save all the data of your USB device beforehand.

-You should never perform formatting on portable audio or video players. In fact, these products have a file system necessary for start-up and file playback. Formatting such devices might make them unusable

-You can format external hard drives and USB sticks. Before doing so, please refer to the manual of the corresponding device to ensure that formatting can be done without altering its functionality.

Page 22

14.5. Notes on the USB playback and recording functions

-Information on the recording format: The recording is carried out in MPEG-TS (Transport Stream) format which allows making recording in MPEG-2 of quality identical to the signal received. In order to play your recordings on another multimedia device, it may be necessary to install a compatible video codec

-If you want to record a film or a long program, use a memory stick of larger capacity (e g 4GB). While if you want to record several films, opt for external hard drives of large capacity.

-When you plug a USB device to the unit, the file loading process can sometimes take a minute or more. This depends on the size of your device, the number of files on it and, above all, the complexity of its directories. You can reduce loading time considerably by avoiding the use of multiple sub-directories on your USB disk.

-Recordings should be made in stereo audio mode (the default mode) and not in AC3 mode. When you select an AC3 audio track (while the channel offers such option), theAC3 signal is transmitted via the coaxial digital output and then decoded directly by your home theatre equipment. Therefore, in case you have selected the AC3 mode before the recording, you must first quit the AC3 mode and return to the stereo audio track. Otherwise, your recording will have no sound.

14.6. Troubleshooting of USB detection or recording problems

-In case the unit cannot detect or recognize you USB device, try formatting it via the Formatting option of the unit. To do this, please refer to the section "13.4 Formatting your USB device”.

-After you have plugged your device to the unit, you may need to switch on the USB device to make it readable by the receiver.

-This unit does not support direct USB connection with a computer. It is necessary that you transfer your data on a USB device such as a USB stick or a MP3 player beforehand. If you use an external hard drive connected to USB, you need to connect your hard drive to a power source and to the unit simultaneously. If you use a video player with hard drive, you must ensure that the internal battery of the player is sufficiently charged.

-Also, verify that the file system of your USB device is properly formatted in FAT 32. USB devices formatted in NTFS are not compatible with this unit.As a last resort, if your USB device in FAT 32

format is not recognized by the unit, it is recommended that you format the device on this unit. To do so, please follow the instructions in Section 13.4 and refer to the manual for your USB device so as to make sure that the formatting can be carried out without altering its functionality.

-Making recordings on a USB stick requires a high transfer rate and a full compatibility with the

USB 2.0 standard. This unit has been tested with most USB 2.0-compatible sticks available on the market. However, some USB sticks, even some new ones, are not fully compatible with the standard. If any USB detection problem or recording problem arises, try with another USB stick which is USB 2.0 compatible. Or, even better, connect an external hard drive equipped with USB port (the device must be connected to a power source) to the unit.

Page 23

-This unit is completely compatible with videos recorded in MPEG-4 SD format. This unit will automatically be able to read the videos encoded with the future updates of the MPEG-4 codecs. No updates on this unit will therefore be necessary. In case of MPEG4 video playback problems, you should first check the four following points: o This player supports videos that are recorded with DivX codecs. In case of video playback

Important Remarks:

(1) Analog Reception and DVB-T Reception

(2) Different volume levels between channels in AC3 format and those in stereo format.

(3) If the reception problem still occurs.

(4)Display problem in HDMI mode

When you wish to watch TV using your TV tuner (analog tuner) and that your DVB-T unit has been turned off or unplugged, the image quality can be deteriorated according to the TV you are using. This is normal, your DVB-T unit must be set in standby mode to allow a good quality signal.

Certain DVB-T programs may be broadcasted in AC3 format, which provides a superior audio quality via the coaxial output from the receiver. If you chose the AC3 format and switch to a channel in stereo format afterwards, the audio volume may increase depending on the DVB-T program format and your home theatre equipment. This is normal; in this case, consider reducing the volume prior to changing channels to avoid listening gene.

Your unit has been tested for optimal performance over all the country. In most cases, the DVBT reception problems are due to a weakness in your home's antenna installation. If your installation is old, or has never been tested for DVB-T, the signal can be too weak or flawed for the unit to work properly.

It is therefore highly recommended that you ask for a qualified technician to test the compliance of your home antenna. This unit has been designed and is guaranteed to work with a signal of at least 60dB.
