Operating instructions (continued)

Shuffle Mode

Selecting this item allows you to choose any of the following: 

Shuffle Tracks

(standard shuffle mode – plays songs in the

current selection in a random order);

Shuffle Albums

(after the current album playing has finished,

a random album will be selected and playback will resume);

Shuffle Off

(your music selection will play in order).

Repeat Mode

Repeat Tracks

(plays each song in the current selection,

then starts again);

Repeat One Track

(repeatedly plays the selected song);

Repeat Off

(no songs are repeated).

Charging

The iD50 docking station also charges the iPod battery while
it is in the dock. However, the iPod’s battery charging circuit
can introduce a little noise to the audio and video outputs.
By switching the charging off, the listener is provided with
the best possible listening experience.

Note:

if the battery is completely flat, the iPod may not

respond for a short while.

For more information on battery recharging, please consult
your iPod manual.

Video Auto Fit

When this option is selected, the iPod attempts to enlarge
the video image to fill the screen so that the top and bottom
or left and right edges end at the screen edge without losing
any vertical or horizontal image information.

Depending on the iPod media and aspect ratio of the screen
as selected below, this may still result in adding either
letterbox black bars at the top and bottom of the screen or
pillarbox black bars at the left and right of the screen.

Widescreen Mode

Use this mode when your video monitor/TV has a horizontal-
to-vertical aspect ratio of 16:9 (widescreen) rather than 4:3
(normal). This setting tells the iPod that your TV is widescreen
so that it can make the best choice of video mode.
Depending on the media source format and this screen
configuration preference, the media content may be
displayed in full widescreen fitting the screen, or have
pillarbox bars as described above. 

Language Settings

Use to select between various different languages for the
iD50’s On-Screen Display.
