Problems & Solutions

Note:

 

Problems & solutions 1 to 2 are for the TV models which have network functions, so users of non-connected 

TV models can disregard them.

formats, which are not compatible with your TV.

6.  Video stops playing midway.

 

-

Mistakes may occur when videos are copied or 
compressed, so they may automatically stop playing 
during playback.

7.  What should I pay attention to, when I do 

software updating?

 

-

No power cuts when software updating;

 

-

Avoid any operations with your remote control when 
software updating;

 

-

Depending on your Internet connection speed, the 
software updating process may take some time.

8.  There

 

are no distinct changes of TV interface 

after software updating.

 

-

Under certain conditions, software updating may not 
only update or add new functions but also improve 
the performance of the TV set, without distinct 
changes of interface. Also, there may be no changes 
to the user interface at all.

9.  What should I do when software updating 

process stops due to a sudden power-off?

 

-

If you do software updating by USB, do not pluck 
the USB drive from your TV, and restart your TV 
to continue software updating; If you do software 
updating by Network, also restart your TV and check 
if it is functioning correctly.

10. With a USB device being inserted into the TV in 

advance, I am prompted that no USB devices are 
detected after I access Media, why?

 

-

There may be something wrong with your portable 
hard drive(s), damaged or with low voltage. It's 
recommended to provide an additional power supply 
to the hard drive(s).

11. External device cannot be recognized.

 

-

Some external devices (e.g. webcam, smart phone, 
tablet, game handle, and external wireless adapter) 
may not be compatible with the TV and cannot be 
supported for certain functions (wireless display, 
gesture control, face recognition, if any). Please try a 
similar device. If it does not work, contact your local 
dealer.

12. Voice search does not work.

 

-

Check if your remote control has been successfully 
paired with your TV.

 

-

Check if the language setting is correct.

 

-

Check if Google server is available and stable.

1.  Fail to link to the network.

 

-

Check if your TV is connected with the network;

 

-

Reboot your TV;

 

-

Consult your Internet service provider, to confirm 

if access of your router is supported. Refer to the 
operation manual of your router, and activate its 
DHCP function after linking the network to your TV.

 

-

Make sure your TV is connected to a router, and 
make sure your router is powered on. Check that 
your router/modem has an Internet connection, and 
that your Ethernet cables/wireless connection is OK. 
Test your connection with a computer to make sure it 
is OK. Should the problem persist, contact customer 
service.

 

-

Check if TV system time is correct or not. Sometimes 
TV system time is synchronized to the wrong time 
from abnormal broadcast signal. In this case, please 
set system time manually.

2.  The video could not be played smoothly.

 

-

Videos from your USB flash drive --- It may be 

caused by abnormal data transmission, or its code 
rate is far beyond the supported formats of this TV 
set.

 

-

Videos downloaded from Internet, or online videos.
a. It may be caused by the lower bandwidth of your 

network. A high network speed is required to  
handle online videos.

b. Peak Internet usage times may affect the 

bandwidth.

c. Check if any other computers on the same 

network are also operating, as they may be using 
up bandwidth. Especially if they are downloading 
or playing online videos.

d. The video may not be smooth itself, it is not the 

problem of your TV or network.

3.  When two portable hard drives are connected 

with the TV at the same time, they will not be 
recognized sometimes.

 

-

All portable hard drives consume a lot of power, 
which may result in power supply problems. We 
recommend inserting only one hard drive, or a low 
power consumption portable hard drive.

4.  The video from a portable hard drive (USB) is 

playing with no sound.

 

-

The audio format of the video in your portable hard 
drive is not supported by the TV player.

5.  Some videos fail to play.

 

-

The formats of the videos may not be supported 
by the TV, especially videos shot by certain kinds 
of cameras, generally with their private protocol of
