Note
▶AV System: Supports the FAT32 file system.
▶File System: When an HDD, DVD/CD media or flash memory device is connected to a
computer, Windows Explorer shows the file name, the size and the creation date for the files
saved on the storage device, by using the information saved on the file system. In addition,
the file system stores the locations of the data that make up the files on the media.
▶ISO: This file system is the most widely used file system for ODDs. This file system is used
when users save data onto a media in the ODD by using a disc burning program such as
NERO or ROXIO.
▶UDF: This is a file system for ODD media that enables reading and writing data onto the
media such as when using an HDD or USB memory device.
For your reference, you can format a RW media in the UDF file system by right-clicking over
the media in Windows Explorer in Windows VISTA or later.
・Frequently asked questions
Is there a limit to the number or size of the files?
Up to 3000 files are supported and the files from root directory up to 5 levels can be recognized.
The maximum size of a file is just under 4 GB. There is no limit to the size of data saved onto a
single disc.
In AV system support mode, it takes longer to recognize a disc.
It takes longer to recognize the discs as data on the ISO/UDF file system is converted to the
FAT32 file system for AV systems to recognize and transmit the data.
In addition, the time delay due to the conversion is determined by the number and size of the
files saved on the disc. (Approximately 30 seconds is required for 1 GB of data.)
I have connected the ODD but there is no response.
Because the file system conversion takes longer, if you connect a high-capacity disc, the
connected device (such as TV) will require some time to recognize the external-type ODD
(1G = approximately 30 seconds).
Note
When recognizing the ODD, the LED of the ODD blinks continuously.
I know my TV supports playing images but I cannot display my images on the TV.
The resolution of the images may not be supported by the TV or the codec (JPG, GIF, BMP, and
etc.) may not be supported by the TV. In addition, if the actual image is in a format other than
JPG such as in the BMP format, the image will not be displayed even though the image file
extension is "JPG".
Does the AV connectivity function allow me to connect to a device such as a TV that only has
video, photo and music playing functions?
The AV connectivity function basically enables connecting an AV device to any device to which
a USB memory device can be connected. However, the AV connectivity device may be unable
to connect to a device due to a power or compatibility problem.
PLEASE NOTE When writing to a device (such as a USB memory device or external HDD that is
connected through the USB interface) is required for some reason, the AV connectivity function
does not work.
