6.2 Frequently Asked Questions 

 

Question  1.  When  I  try  to  disconnect  the  USB  device,  I  keep  on  getting  “The  device 

‘Generic  volume’  cannot  be  stopped  right  now.  Try  stopping  the  device  again  later.” 

message, what should I do?  

Answer:  

Close any program that might be accessing data on the player, including Windows® Explorer. 

If  it  does  not  work,  close  all  programs  and  wait  for  another  20  seconds,  then  try  the  green 

arrow icon again. If it still does not work, you should shut down the player and disconnect the 

USB cable. 

 

Question 2. I find new file names and folder names that I never created before or they 

have strange gibberish names. 

Answer:  

Most  likely,  the  player’s  file  allocation  table  (FAT)  has  been  corrupted. This  might  be  due  to 

the player shutting down (due to low battery power) while reading or writing to your computer 

by the USB connection. Windows and Macintosh often write extra files to the hard disk such 

as finder.def or System volume info. These are normal and will not do any harm to the player. 

 

Question  3.  I  used  my  player  to  transfer  files  back  and  forth  between  different 

computers. Will defragmenting the player hard disk do any harm to it? 

Answer:  

Defragmenting the player hard disk may be useful after having transferred many files to and 

from the player. It is never harmful to use the defragment on the player. Make sure no other 

programs  are  running  while  using  the  Windows®  defragment  utility.  Make  sure  you  have 

connected the player with the external power adapter during this procedure. 

 

Question 4. My files have disappeared from the player. 

Answer:  

Make  sure  that  you  browse  your  files  via  the  correct  browser  mode  which  means  correct 

filtered views such as Photos, Music, or Movies. 

 

Question 5. During power on, why does the TV will have a short flashing, blue screen 

or screensaver? 

Answer: 

This  is  normal,  when  the  system  initializes,  it  will  setup  the  corresponding  parameters  so  it 

can  output  the  correct  video  signal  to  the TV,  during  the  initializing  time,  the TV  will  receive 

incorrect signals or the signals will not be stable and will cause the TV screen to flash, some 

TV’s will treat this as no signal, and will display a blue screen or screensaver.
