Video:

 Choose one type of video output ports to connect: HDMI, Component (Pr,Pb,Y), S-

Video, or Composite. 
 
Turn on your TV and/or home theater equipment, making sure to set those devices to use the 
same audio and video connections used on the player. 
 
Once all of those connections are made, plug in the unit’s power adapter. The unit will turn on 
and, after a delay, the startup screen should be visible on your TV.

 

IMPORTANT! If you see no image on your TV, make sure that the TV is set to use the 
same video connection used on the player. The Composite and S-Video connections should 
always output a valid video signal. For other video connections: if the connections are set 
correctly, use the Video Out button near the bottom of the player’s remote to change the 
video output resolution used by the player. Wait a few seconds after using the Video Out 
button before pressing it again to try the next video output resolution. If you still have no 
output on your TV after using the Video Out button five times, see the Troubleshooting 
Guide, below.

 

Once the HD Theater is connected, turned on, and displaying information on your TV, see the 

Configuring the HD Theater

 section for more setup details. 

 

Configuring the HD Theater 

 
During the first time setup, prompts will be displayed to configure the network, video output, and 
audio output connections, described below. In addition, you will be asked whether the player 
should automatically scan all folders on your local network and attached devices to find media 
files or whether you will manually specify the import folders to be scanned. 
 
Once at the Main Menu, choose from the following items for further configuration options: 

Settings 

 
The Settings menu is used to configure the HD Theater and has the following options: 
 

Network

 – Choose whether to use 

DHCP (Automatic)

 or 

Static (Manual)

 as the 

method for the extender to gets its IP address on your local network. DHCP is 
recommended, if your network has a DHCP server, since it will then automatically get an 
address. The Static option is an advanced option: once this is selected, you will need to 
manually enter your network information.  

 

Video Output

 – Choose this option to configure which video output port to use. Select 

from 

Composite/S-Video

,

Component

, or

HDMI

. After choosing 

Component

 or 

HDMI

, you will then be asked to select which output resolutions will be enabled. 

Tips:

 

1)

 While on the resolution selection menu, use the Video Out button on the remote to test 

the different output resolutions. After each resolution change, the screen will display the
