Care of the screen
Do not touch, push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this may scratch, mar or damage the screen permanently.
And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment.
Do not touch the surface with bare hands or greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental to the screen).
Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen.
When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent cotton or other soft materials like chamois soaks.
Do not use acetone, toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage.
Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible.Their long time contact with the screen causes deformations and colour fading.
Stationary images on the TV screen
A characteristic of LCD and Plasma Panels is that displaying the same image for a long time can cause a permanent after-image to remain on the screen.This is called phosphor burn in. Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen.
Examples of stationary images (this is not an all-inclusive list, you may encounter others in your viewing):
• TV and DVD menus: listings of DVD disk content;
• Black bars: when black bars appear at the left and right side of the screen, it is recommended to change to a picture format so that the picture fills the entire screen;
• TV channel logo: present a problem if they are bright and stationary. Moving or low-contrast graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging of the screen;
• Stock market stickers: presented at the bottom of the TV screen;
• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays: bright and shown constantly or repeatedly in the same location on the TV screen.
Examples of still pictures also include logos, computer images, time display, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode, static images or characters, etc.
Carefully pay attention to these remarks.The guarantee does not apply to damage caused by not taking into account the above mentioned safety warnings on stationary images.
Tip: reduce contrast and brightness when viewing.

Annex 2 - Philips TV Slideshow Format with background music
Notes:
- The latest version of this document can be found on the Philips support website (www.philips.com/support).
Use the type number of your TV (e.g. 32PF9830A/10) to find this documentation and other related files.
- Philips can’t be held responsible for any problems that may occur as a result of the content in this document. Errors reported to
Philips will be adapted and published on the Philips support website as soon as possible.
Introduction
This document explains how to make a Philips slideshow file with background audio.
Be aware that the content of this document is addressing technical or software skilled users.
To start the slideshow open the slideshow file in the Multimedia browser of your TV.
& Press the = key on the remote control after having inserted a memory card or USB device and switched on the TV.
é Go to where you stored the slideshow file (.alb) on your portable memory.
“ Select the slideshow file and press the OK key to start the slide show.
‘ To stop a slide show, press the ‡ key.
General Rules
• The slideshow will use plain ASCII XML syntax to allow the creation and editing of the slideshow files using simple tools.
• All references to network content must be based on the global address of the content.
• Content on a Portable Memory (PM) doesn't have a global address; as a result content from a PM can never be referenced from a slideshow not stored on the PM itself.
• To maintain portability, a slideshow stored on a PM should ONLY reference content on the same PM. Referencing global addresses can result in inconsistencies if the PM is used on a non-networked CE device. The latter is however not forbidden, it is only a recommendation.
• It is preferable that URL’s referencing PM content are based on a relative path starting from the directory where the slideshow is stored. This path includes the device or drive name of the PM.
An absolute path to content will also be supported.
- relative path: pictures\test1.jpg, tamper.jpg, ..\new\bird.jpg, …
- absolute path: USB1:\pictures1\foo_bar.jpg, C:\f1.jpg, \organization.jpg, …
General Format
The format and syntax below will be used to create the slideshow file (simple ascii text) with the extension .alb (.ALB)
Examples: slshow1.alb, summer_holiday_2004.ALB, test.alb, …
The following syntax should be used to create the text file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-885h9-1" ?>
<philips-slideshow version="1.0" >
<title>Title of the slideshow</title>
<audio>audio_url</audio>
<slide-duration>30</slide-duration>
<slides>
<slide>slide_1_url</slide>
<slide>slide_2_url</slide>
<slide>slide_3_url</slide>
<slide>slide_4_url</slide>
<slide>slide_5_url</slide>
<slide>slide_6_url</slide>
...
<slide>slide_N-1_url</slide>
<slide>slide_N_url</slide>
</slides>
</philips-slideshow>
Supported XML-tags
The following table gives a description of the XML syntax.
Tag Name Use philips-slideshow mandatory title optional audio optional slide-duration slides slide optional mandatory optional
Description
Philips slideshow signature including the version.
The title of the playlist.
The audio-URL following this tag will define the music playing in the background during the slideshow.
A single song or playlist (.m3u & .pls) are the only valid audio references. Other reference will not result in any audio playback. If a single song is referenced the song will be repeated forever. If a playlist is referenced the playlist will be played in sequence with a repeat at the end of the playlist.
The default display time (in 0,1 second) of a slide. The TV application isn’t obliged to support this tag. The TV application can force the use of one or multiple predefined display times.

Digital Content Issues
• Only FAT (DOS) formatted (initialized) portable memory is supported. Errors in this formatting can result in unreadable content. If such problems appear try to re-format the card. Be aware that formatting the card will also delete all the content on it (pictures, music, …).
• The following file types are supported: .jpg, .jpeg, .mp3, .alb, .m3u and .pls.
• Only linear JPEG picture formats are supported. Progressive JPEG encodings are not supported.
• The length of a filename or directory name is limited to the length specified by the FAT12/16/32 file systems.
• Max. levels of nested directories is 19.
• Never use the supported file type extensions (.jpg, .jpeg, .mp3, .alb, .m3u and .pls) as extensions for directories as these directories will be treated as corrupted files.
• The MP3 decoder does not support MPEG1 Layer 1 or Layer 2 playback.
• The access and response time of the content on a device can differ depending on the type or brand of the device.
• The access and response time of the content on a device will decrease the more unsupported or corrupted files are on the device.
Portable Memory Issues
• The following memory cards* are supported by the digital media reader:
- CompactFlash Card (Type I & II) (CF)
- IBM Microdrive
- Memory Stick + Memory Stick Pro
- SecureDigital Card (SD)
- SmartMedia Card (SM)
- MultiMedia Card (MMC)
• XD cards are supported through an external XD compatible card reader (not supplied with the TV) connected to the USB connector. The same holds for other future memory cards.
• Do not apply excessive force when inserting a memory card into the digital media reader. If the memory card doesn’t fit or isn’t detected by the TV, try to flip over the card and re-insert it.
• When inserting multiple cards at the same time some card combinations will work. It is however recommended to insert maximum one memory card at the same time.
* Trademarks and trade names belong to their respective owners.
Digital Camera Issues
If a USB connection between your digital camera and the TV isn’t working, you can try the solutions below to resolve your problem.
• Make sure your digital camera is switched on and verify if the configuration of your digital camera is correct (see the manual of your digital camera for more information).
• Some digital cameras allow you to switch off the USB interface. Make sure that the USB interface is switched on before connecting to the TV.
• Remove the memory card from your digital camera and insert it directly into the digital media reader on the right side of your TV.
• If you have a digital camera with only internal memory (no removable memory) you can try to copy the content manually to a memory card or a USB memory device using a personal computer.
• Some digital cameras allow you to switch between PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) or “PC Link” and USB Mass Storage or
“PC Drive”. Make sure that you select USB Mass Storage or “PC Drive” on your digital camera.
• If your camera supports different interface settings be sure to try them one by one or contact the reseller of your camera to find out the correct setting.
USB Memory Device Issues
• Devices connected to the USB port of your TV must be “Mass Storage Class” compliant. If your device (digital camera.
MP3 player, portable harddisk, …) is not “Mass Storage Class” compliant it will not be detected by the content browser of the TV.
• The following subsets of the Mass Storage Class specification are supported:
- The implementation of the TV is based on the “Universal Serial Bus Mass Storage Class Specification Overview” (v1.2,
June 23, 2003) including all documents referenced by the document. The document can be found on the USB standardisation website (www.usb.org).
- Full support of the USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport (bInterfaceProtocol = 50h).
- Full support of SubClass Code = 05h; SFF-8070i spec.
- Full support of SubClass Code = 06h; SCSI transparent command set.
• For large USB memory devices, when you are in the Content Browser, it may take a long time before you can access your files.
• When using a USB portable harddisk: Due to the high power consumption of the harddisk, it is advised to use the external power supply of the portable harddisk to guarantee proper working under all conditions.

To avoid implementation problems we recommend using a Wireless Access Point device (e.g. Philips CPWBS054) in combination with a wireless Ethernet bridge (also called a “Game adapter”).
Wireless devices use a wireless protocol to communicate by means of radio waves.Wireless radio waves travel outwards from the antenna in all directions, and can transmit through walls and floors.
Wireless radio waves can theoretically reach up to 100 meters in an open environment. Practically it could be less than 10 meters depending on the type of walls and floors in your home and other environmental conditions.The content playback quality will depend on the wireless signal quality and the connection type.

Annex 2 :Wireless network security
Attention
Since wireless computer networks use radio signals, it is possible for other wireless network devices outside your immediate area to pick up the wireless signals and either connect to your network or to capture the network traffic.
Consult the user manual supplied with your wireless Access point or wireless Ethernet bridge for further information.
DO
• Viruses, spyware and other malicious programs can undermine the security of your network. Use the appropriate software to protect your PC from these threats.
• Change the default passwords for your network devices. Leaving these at default makes it easy for an outsider to gain access.
Note: If you change passwords, write them down and store them in a safe location.
• Use a router or a Wireless Access Point with
Network Address Translation (NAT) or a firewall.
• In a wireless network, enable the highest WEP key level that your hardware provides for. Upgrade your hardware, if possible. If you do not protect your wireless network, all data from your PC might be accessible to, for example, your neighbours or passers-by.
• Switch off SSID broadcast on the Wireless Access
Point.
• Position your Wireless Access Point away from windows and towards the centre of your home.
This decreases the strenght of the signal outside your home.
• Some access points can control access based on the unique MAC address of the network devices trying to connect to it. See the documentation of your network devices to retrieve the MAC addresses.
For the MAC address of your TV, see Annex 3,
Manual Network Installation,View Network settings, p.13.
DON’T
• Don’t rely on radio transmission range limitations to secure your network.
• Don’t use WEP/WPA keys and passwords that are easy to guess.
• Don’t use passphrases to secure your wireless network as incompatibility with other brands of wireless network devices may occur.

Ad-Hoc network :A direct network connection between two devices ( two PCs, or a PC and a TV).
DHCP : Refers to Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol used by many routers to automatically connect computers to the network. Please, refer to your router or gateway hardware instructions to see if this is supported.
The router acts as a DHCP server.This server allocates IP addresses, netmasks, and the gateway address to all DHCP client computers and devices in the network automatically.
DNS :The Domain Name System is a distributed
Internet directory service. DNS is used mostly to translate between domain names and IP addresses, and to control e-mail delivery.
DivX 4, DivX 5, XviD : a digital video compression format based on the MPEG-4 technology, used mainly for downloadable movies on the Internet.
Ethernet : Ethernet is a well-established local area networking standard, and is incorporated into (or available for) most computers.
Firewall :A firewall acts as a barrier that helps protect your network from intruders from the
Internet.The firewall specifies what information can be communicated from the computers on your network to the Internet, and from the Internet to the computers on your network.
Gateway :The address of the upper device that has a connection to the Internet.
A Gateway router is a network component that attaches to your cable or ADSL modem. It allows multiple computers or other devices to be connected together and to share the same broadband Internet connection.
(A wireless router is required for wireless connection.)
Home network :A network is a wired or wireless connection between two or more devices.
Home networks allow you to connect computers together to share files and an Internet connection.

Internet, each system having a unique “IP Address” by which it may be identified.
IP addresses uniquely identify every network or host on the Internet.
Every computer in a network has a unique IP address.
MAC address : (Media Access Control address)
Each device (e.g. PC Ethernet card, router, wireless
Ethernet adapter, ...) that can be connected to a network has a unique hardware address.
MP3 :A popular standard audio compression format used on the Internet. Most commonly used to play audio on computer.
MP3 Pro :A newer MP3 format. Offers an improvement in compressed sound quality.
MPEG 4 : standard for audio/video compression, with higher compression rate than MPEG 2.
Netmask :A netmask is used to define a sub-net which is separated from all other networks by a router.The netmask indicates which part of the IP address is on the local network, and which must go out through the router.
PC Link : PC Link is a feature that enables you to transfer music, picture or movie files from the computer(s) on your home network to your TV.
You need to install the Philips Media Manager software to use PC Link.
Philips Media Manager :The software you need to install and have active on your PC to be able to access music, pictures and video on your PC.
PMM : Philips Media Manager.
Router :A device that does the interconnecting of networks. Its job is to coordinate and filter traffic between the networks. ( E.g. your home network and the Internet)
