Import Precautions
Before you start to use the Network media center, please follow the notes
below to properly use it:
Please make sure that the unit is in powered off status when
attached or detaching any cables.
Should you want to use the record function of the unit, you must
format the hard drive via the setup menu, which will wipe out all
of the data on the drive and the file system will be EXT-3. In
order to use EXT-3 file system on a Windows system, you must
install a special driver and we suggest EXT2FSD.
Please use either the HDMI or component output for the best
video quality.
Remember to periodically backup the data on the hard drive. We
do not provide warranty or being held responsible for any loss of
data on any storage devices attached to the Network Media
Center.
Whenever you update the firmware on the unit, it may reset all of
the settings on the unit. You may need to re-enter all of the
associated customized settings.
Please beware that the wireless network, on applicable models,
is meant for Internet purpose only. For the best movie playback
performance over the network, a physical 10/100 LAN is highly
recommended. You may encounter stutter or stoppage when
trying to playback high definition content over the wireless
network.
※The wireless network feature is only for Network Media Center T1000W/1000W
