Thank you for purchasing the Mede8er Multimedia Player. The MED300X was developed by Sanji for those who demand the best in picture and audio without all the fuss. Simple yet very functional in operation and design. The MED300X is ideal for large size internal 3.5"...
Connect the hard drive power connector and the red SATA data connector from the player to the hard drive diagram c. Re fit the hard drive cover into the Mede8er body and tighten the two securing screws x and y.
For digital audio connection to your Home Theatre System you can either use the TOSLINK Optical or the Coax Digital output. The MED300X supports both Passthrough and Downmix for both Dolby Digital and DTS signals. If you want your Home Theatre Amplifier to decode the surround sound stream you should use either Digital Audio output and set the Audio Output to SPDIF RAW in the Setup menu.
