9.0 Setting up the media player for media
playback
Before you start to play your media files, you might want to setup some options which
are useful for media play. The media player has multiple options which can be set for
media playback. During the following chapter, we will discuss the most important
options and which options should be turned on or off by default. If desired, you can
make any changes you want to these settings.
9.1 Media Library
The EM7385 & EM7380 have the possibility to create a library or database of the
media content which is placed on the internal hard disk (EM7385) or connected USB
devices ( EM7385 & EM7385). This way, when a category is selected, all media
belonging to this category will be shown. At movies, all supported video files will be
shown at once, at ‘Music’, all supported audio files will be shown at once and at
‘Photo’, all supported image files will be shown at once. Using the ‘Menu’ button on
the remote control, you will be able to select different views and make more detailed
selections.
1. Go to ‘Setup’ and press the ‘OK’ button on the remote control.
2. Go to ‘MISC’.
3. If you want a library of database to be created, you need to set the ‘Media
Library’ to ‘On’.
4. However, the default setting is ‘Off’.
Please note: When ‘Media Library’ is set to ‘On’, the library or database will be created
during a restart. Creating the library or database can take a while, depending on the
amount of media files stored on your (USB) hard disk.
9.2 3D/2D video auto detect
The EM7385 & EM7380 have the possibility to switch to a 3D mode if the media
player detects a 3D stream. To be able to switch to a 3D mode, the media player
needs to be connected to a 3D television using a HDMI High Speed (HDMI 1.4) cable.
1. Go to ‘Setup’ and press the ‘OK’ button on the remote control.
2. Go to ‘MISC’.
3. If you are using a 3D television, the 3D/2D video auto detect’ option is available.
4. Check whether ‘Auto 3D’ is set. ‘Auto 3D’ is the default setting.
9.3 Subtitle encoding detection
This option makes sure the media player automatically detects the text encoding of
the subtitle to display the subtitle(s) correctly.
