2. Configuring the MP-3450 Media Player

2.1. System connections

1
Attach a video cable (either VGA or HDMI) to your monitor.
When using the VGA connection, your monitor should support XGA (1024x768) resolution or greater. For audio
output, you will also need to connect a stereo RCA cable from the MP-3450 to your monitor.
When using an HDMI connection, audio is sent along with video over the HDMI cable, so no additional cables are
required.
Reminder: If you do not see anything on screen, re-check your monitor video input.
2
Attach the AC power adapter to power on the unit. Shortly afterwards, the following progress bar will be
displayed on your monitor:

Player boot process takes approximately 90 seconds to complete and end with a Welcome! screen. The player
will indicate that it is ready for content sync via the USB port or, if content has been loaded, begin playback
immediately.
Troubleshooting Tips
1
The operation indicators light up, but no video is displayed on screen.

Ensure that your video cable (VGA or HDMI) is securely connected. When using an
HDMI connection, choose high quality, certified HDMI cables or try using shorter
length cables.

Check if your monitor is turned-on and switched to the corresponding video input
source.
2
No sound is heard.

If using VGA connection, you also need to connect RCA audio cables.

Check volume (mute) settings on monitor.

~ 90 seconds
After performing the initial setup as outlined above,
the player will boot into the "Open Standard Media
Player" screen. Plug in a USB keyboard to enter
configuration menus.
If you have already loaded media contents into the
player, contents will play back immediately after boot
up, and the "Open Standard Media Player" screen will
not be shown. You can still plug in a USB keyboard at
any time during playback to enter the menu system.
