When the HS 500 is in play mode, pressing the
PLAY button on the remote control will highlight

If you have a USB device that contains both
music files (MP3, WMA) and JPEG images, you
can choose to run these simultaneously, mixing
the MP3 or WMA audio with your own images.
The time interval can be chosen in the Picture
Setting.
With such devices, you can also either listen to
the MP3 or WMA audio or watch the JPEG video
files only. In order to do so, click in stop mode
on the MUSIC, PICTURE or MOVIE icons on the
left part of the screen to select or deselect the
desired format.
NOTE:
The HS 500 will not play back any of the
formats SVCD/VCD, MPEG1 (Video), MPEG2
(Video) and audio CD tracks (CDDA) stored on
an external USB hard drive.
• You will need a FAT32 pre-formatted external
hard disk drive with USB connector. If your disk
is formatted with another file system (like NTFS)
you will need to re-format it. Please contact your
hard disk supplier for more information.
• We recommend creating folders and sort the
files by file type (movies, pictures or music). This
will allow you to quickly find the file you’re look-
ing for.

tions, that are recorded with matrix surround or
