ENGLISH
If you have a disc that contains both MP3 files
and JPEG images, you can choose to run these
simultaneously, mixing the MP3 audio with your
own images. The time interval can be chosen in
the Picture Setting.
Also you can have the image files follow the
audio signal: at the end of each audio track, the
next JPEG image will be shown.
With such discs, you can also either listen to the
MP3 audio or watch the JPEG video files only. In
order to do so, in stop mode, click on the AUDIO
or PICTURE icons on the left part of the screen to
select or deselect the desired format. Once done,
the tracklist will only show the MP3 or JPEG files.
Radio Menu
The FM Tuner in the HS 500 can be used to listen
to the Radio. Before listening to the radio sta-
tions, you need to preset your favorite stations.
The easiest way to do so is with the OSD screen
on your monitor.
1. Press the Radio button

on the remote
control to turn the DVD Receiver on and select
Radio as the source. Also make sure that your
video monitor connected to the HS 500 is
switched on.
2. The TV monitor will show the RADIO Menu, as
shown below. You can also select the RADIO
Menu with the ARROW
9
keys on the remote
control. Once the RADIO tab is highlighted, press
ENTER

to access the RADIO Menu.
The RADIO Menu shows the selected Audio
mode, the name of a station currently played (as
long as RDS is available) and a Station list listing
the 30 stations with their preset, station name
and frequency.
Note: The stations can be preset auto-
matically or manually. The Manual Preset
mode is described first. The Auto Preset
mode is described later in this manual.
3. The RDS and AUTO Tune functions are
switched on by default, shown by the dark
blue icons, to make the process of tuning your
favorite stations as easy as possible. Move the
cursor to the end of the first station line in the
menu. The frequency will be highlighted and a
brief explanation will appear in the Upper
Menu Line on the bottom of the menu.
NOTE:
Both RDS and AUTO Tune functions can
be switched off by moving the cursor button to
the icon at the left side of the menu and pressing
the Enter Button on the remote control so that it
turns light blue.

name of the station will be displayed (as long
as RDS is transmitted by the station).
The station will be stored automatically on the
current preset.
If you know the frequency of your station, you
can also tune the frequency directly with the help
of the numeric keys of the remote control. Move

the frequency with the numeric keys. Press Enter

the Upper Menu Line to store all your radio
stations in the tuner’s memory.
Rearranging the station list
Once all the stations have been stored in the
memory, you can rearrange the station list,
putting your favorite stations on top of the list.

been rearranged according to your
preferences.

Auto Preset function
When the cursor is moved to the " # " icon on
top of the preset numbers you can activate the
Auto Preset function, clear the complete frequen-
cy list or restore all default frequencies set by the
factory.
When the Auto Preset is selected the tuner will
scan the full FM range and store all stations with
acceptable reception one after another on the
presets. The frequency scanned will appear on
the left lower side of the menu while the fre-
quency of each station stored will be shown on
the right side of the list. When the complete FM
range is scanned or all presets (30) are loaded
with stations the scan will stop and the first
preset be selected.
You also can stop the scan at any time by pressing
the STOP button
